Book Synopsis
One of the toughest roles for women today is being a Pastor/Minister’s wife. The role is filled with trials and demands. It can be tiring, self-sacrificing, physically demanding, and emotionally draining. Even after 25 years the role is still requiring more. Only if someone would have told me in the beginning how to overcome some of the challenges and obstacles that Minister’s wives face in the ministry; fulfilling the role may not have been easier, but at least more understandable.
“The Ministry of the Minister’s Wife should not be overlooked. I know that it is not an identified position in the church, but it is a required service for woman married to a Minster. Her value to the church is no greater than her value to her husband. Her effectiveness in ministry will not be determined by how well she dresses on Sunday morning, the beauty of her character in dealing with church members, or the compassion she shows and shares within the body of Christ. Her true value in ministry is evident in how she ministers to the needs of the Minister. Let’s explore three areas of ministry in the life of the Minister’s Wife.
