“It’s not the ministry that will kill you; it’s the expectations and stereotypes.”

Being a pastor’s wife is often an unseen, misunderstood, and isolating journey. The pressure to fit into predefined roles, the weight of silent expectations, and the fear of disappointing others can leave ministry wives feeling boxed in, struggling to recognize their own identity beyond the roles they are expected to play.

With raw honesty, biblical truth, and personal experience, Burning the Boxes challenges the manmade expectations and stereotypes that keep pastors’ wives bound and points them toward the abundant, unboxed life God has planned for them. For women who feel trapped in the performance of ministry, this helpful resource offers the clarity and encouragement needed to shed the weight of others’ opinions and embrace the unique way God has called them to serve.

Whether they’ve questioned their role, struggled under the pressure of leadership, or longed for permission to be who God made them to be, Burning the Boxes will help pastors’ wives rediscover their calling—not as others define it, but as God designed it.

Women weren’t created to fit into a mold. They were made to thrive. Ready to burn the boxes and step into freedom?

Whitney Shafer is a pastor’s wife, ministry leader, and advocate for the health and well-being of pastors’ wives. She is the cofounder of G6 Allies, a nonprofit dedicated to building resilient ministry leaders, and runs Vibrant, a division of G6 focused on supporting pastors’ wives. With a bachelor of science in theology and biblical counseling from Boyce College and board certification as a mental health coach with the American Association of Christian Counselors, Whitney combines theological depth with practical wisdom to equip women in ministry. With over two decades of ministry experience, including various staff positions and the challenges of life as a pastor’s wife, she’s passionate about helping women break free from expectations and embrace their God-given calling. She and her husband serve at G6 Church in Oklahoma, where she teaches her beloved kids’ Sunday school class. In her spare time, Whitney enjoys reading and caring for her schnauzers.
