Help! I'm Married to My Pastor
Crossway Books (Verlag)
978-1-4335-6977-7 (ISBN)
Ministry is hard. And every ministry wife needs—and deserves—encouragement.
A woman marries a man, not his ministry. But all too often her husband’s calling complicates their life together. What if ministry life isn’t what she bargained for? What happens when her children make mistakes? How does she deal with church gossip, or even slander?
As a pastor’s wife of almost fifty years, Jani Ortlund addresses these questions, along with many others, as she offers encouragement and guidance to ministry wives. Jani reminds readers that God works out his delightfully good purposes in and through their sacrifices.
Foreword by Ray Ortlund
Addresses the unique hardships and fears ministry wives face on a regular basis
Each chapter includes personal stories from different ministry wives in difficult situations
Calls ministry wives to a more intimate faith and deeper hope as they seek to serve Christ
Each chapter concludes with a short letter to the husband in ministry to help facilitate better communication with his wife
