The Keenly Podcast
Most ministry leaders didn't get into this work because it was easy. They got into it because it mattered. But somewhere between the vision and the reality, things get complicated, and the questions get harder to answer.
The Keenly Podcast is built for that tension. Hosted by Chad and Jason, each episode dives into the questions ministry leaders are actually sitting with... about impact, growth, perception, and whether the story you're telling lines up with the mission you're living. These are the conversations happening in staff meetings, board rooms, and quiet moments of honest reflection across ministries everywhere, and this podcast is where they happen out loud.
Whether you're a pastor, a team leader, a creative, a volunteer, or a student exploring a calling to ministry, each episode is designed to give you perspective, designed to give you perspective, language, and tools for the moments that actually keep you up at night; whether that's a staffing decision, a shrinking congregation, or a mission that's drifted from where it started.

Burnout
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Burnout isn’t just being tired. It’s chronic fatigue, loss of joy, and reduced effectiveness that often arrives slowly and quietly. Join Chad, Jason, Ethan, and Ava as they unpack what burnout really is, how it shows up in ministry and leadership, how they’ve navigated it in different seasons of life, and why boundaries and accountability aren’t optional when it comes to addressing it.
