In this episode of the Lead On Podcast, Jeff Iorg, president of the Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention, discusses the perplexing problem of loneliness in Christian leadership, despite leaders being embedded in communities and relationships. Iorg explains that loneliness is an occupational hazard due to isolation by information, obedience, job demands, and emotional depletion. He shares personal experiences and emphasizes the importance of having realistic expectations, cultivating an awareness of God's presence, and building sustaining friendships. He also highlights special circumstances, such as when loneliness turns into depression or when ministry settings are particularly isolating or toxic, advising leaders to seek necessary medical, psychological, and spiritual help.
