I Am a Pastor's Wife

I've been a pastor's wife for several years. I met my husband in college while he was a Theology major and we were married within one year. I didn't feel like I really knew what to expect as a pastor's wife so I went into it with zeal...

I never thought I would be a senior pastor's wife someday. Not in my wildest dreams. I felt called to missions at a young age, and went on every missions trip available until I entered Bible college. I married my best friend and we...

Hello, I guess I dont know where to start.  I have been married for 4 1/2 years and have been in ministry for 4 years.  It has been a VERY hard JOURNEY.  My marriage at first was ok, but then the CHURCH became the other...

I shared my story but got a nasty reply calling me a sissy so I deleted my story. I came here for support, not to be put down.

My husband recently took an associate position in a very large church.  He is one of 12 pastors.  It's a good thing for him but not for me.  We've been there since January and I've yet to even be able to identify most of...

I am so thankful that I found this site tonight. I feel like I am drowning. My husband has been a youth pastor for five years. We are at our third church. I loved this church until six months ago and we have been here for over three...

This has been brewing in me for a while, but I have to be careful what I say around a lot of people.  Seems like much of my life is spent biting my tongue. Ugh.
I'm tired of being judged and people freely giving their opinions of what...

When we first got married we did not think much about religion but as time went by my husband began to focus more on faith and spirituality. I myself began to go down a spiritual path but mine was very different from his. I am Jewish...

I don't have a word to describe how I feel tonight as we prepare for Easter. My heart has had such anger and bitterness for so long. I find I have not been able to worship and listen in church as my husband gives the sermon. All I do is...
