Leading Lady Holistic and Holy

There are not a lot of resource books for wives of ministers to help prepare them to serve in ministry. Whether your spouse is a senior pastor, an associate pastor, minister of music, or serving in any other appointed ministerial role, resources for the wife are limited. This book shares the author's journey and experiences she had growing up as the youngest child of a pastor and personal lessons she has learned by being the wife of a minister. By no means does she profess to have all the answers. However, her aim is to provide a resource that will help other women as they embark upon the journey of ministry alongside her husband. Through this testimonial, the author shares suggestions for helping children to embrace their parent's role in ministry. It also provides wives with suggestions for how to support their husbands in ministry while maintaining balance in the home and taking care of themselves. If you are looking to avoid misery in ministry, this book will give an inside look from the eyes of a twelve-year-old who grows up to become a pastor's wife. It is our hope that this short testimonial will encourage ministerial families to remain healthy and whole in order to effectively lead in ministry and prevent burn out from overtaking their lives.
