Impact of Secondary Trauma and Compassion Fatigue on Christian Leaders
Description
As humans, we are impacted by the pain and suffering of others. God created us with the capacity to feel people’s pain. Exposure to a traumatized society puts us in danger of becoming traumatized ourselves. Feeling things we didn't experience means living the traumas of those we serve. In this talk, we talk about secondary trauma’s impact on Christian leaders and what practical things we can do to address compassion fatigue and burnout.
