42% of pastors are burned out and are contemplating quitting the ministry in a new study released by Barna. That is a sharp rise since just one year ago when the number was around 23%.

Christ spoke of a time yet to come where Christianity will be significantly decreased in size when he returns. Meaning that at some point in the future there will come a significant departure from the faith.
42% is a tremor to what is coming.
