I’ve got a real case of the Monday’s today and so it was interesting that this was posted at For the Church.

I’ve always liked that powerful video by S.M. Lockeridge where he repeatedly booms out, “It’s Friday. But they don’t know Sunday is coming.” I’ve often thought about making a spoof of this for pastors called “It’s Monday, but Sunday is coming.”
Mondays are tough on pastors. For some, feelings of discouragement, anxiety, and depression will begin to kick in as early as Sunday afternoon.
This really isn’t unique to pastors. Even if you aren’t a pastor I’m guessing that you have had times of a great spiritual high, only to find yourself the next day feeling like a total schmuck. This experience is what Archibald Hart calls “Post-adrenaline depression.”
