After 15 years of pastoring and 25 years in ministry, Pastor Shane Idleman was on the verge of walking away. The pressures, struggles, and spiritual battles had worn him down, just like they have for thousands of pastors who leave ministry each year. But instead of quitting, he leaned into God’s calling and found renewed strength.

Now, he’s using his story to help other pastors who feel like giving up, reminding them that if the Great Shepherd has called them, there is always hope.

His journey is proof that even in the darkest moments, God isn’t finished writing the story.
