Download or read book Why Can T I Love My Pastor S Wife written by Shonda Moliere Little and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-11-28 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why Cant I Love My Pastors Wife was written to expose and unsilence the truth about the pastors wife and how she is often treated in the church. Attitudes concerning the pastors wife have been one of the hindering forces that have hindered the church from going forth. There has been a masquerade in the church that says that everything is well. This area has been completely silenced too long. In this book, Shonda Little asks a very thought-provoking question. She asks, Why cant I love my pastors wife? In this very personal and heartfelt book, she manages to address this very sensitive question through her personal experiences as a pastors wife and through the Bible. Romans 15:7 tells us to receive ye one another as Christ also received us to the glory of God. This means that we are to receive the pastors wife as well as the pastor. The church has to love and accept the pastors wife because they are one. They cannot be separated. You cannot love the pastor on the scale of ten and love the wife on the scale of five. This area has been an underlying factor that has been in the church to keep it hindered and divided. There must be unity in this area in the church. When this happens, there is division. The devil uses this to cause division in the church. God said that where there is unity, there is strength. This book will unsilence this area in the church so that the church can move forward in unity and the love of God.

Download or read book The Silver Lining A Practical Guide for Christian Grandmothers written by Nancy Wilson and published by Canon Press & Book Service. This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At last, a practical, Christian guide for grandmothers--and for younger women preparing for that stage of life! Since our culture is in love with immaturity, advice written for "older" women can tend to focus on changes: empty nests, new priorities, grown children getting married, etc. But the Bible tells us to focus on the things that don't change: In all seasons of life, God has good works prepared in advance for us to walk in. And whether you're a young woman, married, unmarried, widowed, middle-aged, or a great-grandma, you never quit exercising that faith in Christ. Grandkids and getting older, dinners and hospitality, mentorship and being an "in-law" all come with their own stretches of bumpy road, but faith and joy (and a little of Nancy Wilson's practical advice) go a long way. Women travelling through this season should be thinking in terms of family legacy--and in terms of eternity--as they seek godly wisdom, great joy, and a silver-haired crown of glory.

Download or read book The Minister s Wife written by Karen Stiller and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She never expected to be a minister’s wife. And the life she discovered was more challenging—and more beautiful—than she could have anticipated. We all wrestle with tough questions about life and faith, and Karen Stiller has learned that answers don’t come any easier when you’re married to the minister. What does it mean to live faithfully in our complicated world? Is there a place here for me—the real me? What does everyone expect of me, and what if I fail? In The Minister’s Wife, Karen shines a light on the rhythms and tough realities of the spiritual life for each and every one of us. She explores how community helps us grow; the unexpected beauty of doubt; the messy pain of families and funerals; how church can hurt and heal; and the beauty of showing up when sometimes it is more appealing to go to a coffee shop on a Sunday morning (even when you’re the pastor’s wife). Warm, witty, and achingly honest, The Minister’s Wife is a memoir in essays on choosing to belong, and an invitation to join a spiritual adventure.
