This survey collects information from pastors about their demographics, church attendance, self-care, relationships, finances, and job satisfaction. It asks pastors to rate their agreement with statements about experiencing burnout, having a mentor, feeling passionate about ministry, and whether their church is growing. The survey also collects data on pastors' salaries, time spent preparing sermons, and their church's programs, finances, attendance and community impact. The information will be used to better serve pastors and their ministries.
