REVIEW OF LITRATURE Nelsen and Everett (1976) suggest the members willingness to be taught is related to job satisfaction, and it has been shown that a feeling of frustration when teaching contributes to low job satisfaction in special education teachers (Stempien & Loeb 2002).

Reff: Nelsen, H. M. & Everett, R. F. (1976). Impact of church size on clergy role and career [Electronic version]. Review of Religious Research 18, 1, 62-73. Veldhoven 2009). These long work hours may be indicative of a strong commitment by clergy to their congregations and community. Personal dedication, investment in ones job, and commitment increase job satisfaction in clergy and religious order workers (Wittberg 1993). Anecdotal accounts can certainly verify this commitment, and it is something clergy have in common with firefighters (Lee & Olshfski 2002).

International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health 82, 3, 291-303

Doolittle (2007) discusses coping strategies and finds that planning, acceptance and positive reframing relate to increased personal accomplishment while self-blame, disengagement, distraction and denial relate to increased emotional exhaustion. A higher spirituality score, however, is also correlated with higher emotional exhaustion and personal accomplishment, suggesting that clergy satisfaction is complicated and that emotional exhaustion may not mean dissatisfaction. Doolittle also finds evidence to support the need for clergy to maintain healthy boundaries. A study by Randall (2007) suggests that younger clergy experience more burnout.

Lewis, Turton and Francis (2007) introduce the issue with a summary of its contents, which may be a helpful resource. All studies included in the issue use the Maslach Burnout Inventory, which seems to be a helpful tool. Within this issue, Miner (2007a) reports that ministers experience stress in their first year related to their relationships with family and friends, including marital stress, and related to ministry expectations, conflicts, and loss of people in the church.
