A Pastor's Wife

Whether we admit it or not, the pastor's wife plays a vital role in her husband's ministry. In some cases, she may determine the success or failure of it. But what does that role involve? Are the expectations the church has of her the same as God's expectations? How can she find her unique calling to ministry and fulfil it? Storms of criticism and doubt may come her way. There will be challenges as she manages her home and raises her children. How can she live each day with Jesus as her Lord and Master?

This is a book for any woman who wants to live to please God in her life, but especially in her role as a pastor's wife. The authors bring together 138 years of collective wisdom on the topic. They are passionate about their desire to encourage new and future pastors' wives with biblical principles and real-life examples, giving them direction and hope.

This book will definitely help and encourage you as you work alongside your pastor husband. I recommend this book to every pastor's wife. Carol Britten, co-author with her husband, Bruce, of Answers for Your Marriage and Love & Marriage: Questions Young People Ask.

Marriage is the only school where people get their certificates before they write their examinations. As a pastor's wife, you get double certificates without undergoing any training. In order to pass the examinations that follow (the tests, trials and tribulations of marriage and the ministry) this book will be of much help. From the Foreword by Dr. Takalani Dube.
