Fired. Forcefully Terminated.
Forced Resignation.
Whatever you call it, it is devastating.
If you've experienced the deep pain of pastoral termination, being fired from ministry, or facing an unwanted exit from a church, you're not alone. Many faithful leaders find themselves hurt, confused, and disoriented after losing their ministry position—especially when it happens suddenly or unjustly.
You have not "failed."
You did not "hear God wrong."
You are not alone.
May the resources below help you as you begin to take your next steps in healing after an unwanted church exit.
