Synopsis

In a world that expects near perfection from people in ministry, it is hard to be honest about struggles of being a pastor's wife or a woman in ministry—let alone have a sense of humor about it! In their popular podcast, Pastors' Wives Tell All, Jessica Taylor, Stephanie Gilbert, and Jenna Allen create a safe place for pastors' wives and women in ministry to be their most authentic selves. Now they're bringing their wit and wisdom to women through the written word.

Addressing topics such as how to smash stereotypes, deal with marital issues, make friends, and overcome parenting anxiety, they remind pastors' wives (and the people in their congregations) that God doesn't expect them to be superhuman. They show women how to establish and maintain healthy boundaries, seek wise counsel, confess their sins and shortcomings aloud, shed the persona of perfection, and much more.

If you're a pastor's wife—by calling, by choice, or by circumstance—you'll find relief, renewal, and refreshment in this book.

About Jessica Taylor

Jessica Taylor enjoys discovering new things, that's why she became a scientist. She grew up outside of Tampa, Florida, the lightning capital of the world. Watching storms inspired her to study meteorology. Now she lives with her husband and two daughters in Virginia, where they watch and observe the clouds together. She hopes her first children's book inspires young scientists to observe and ask questions about how technology helps us better understand our world.

Reading this when I did was definitely helpful.. as a fellow pastors wife I could feel this book.. almost as if I was there in the personal stories… over the past 15years we (hubby and I) have been both unbelievably hurt by the church and blessed by the church. I found myself slightly wishing I had......more

I’m not a pastor’s wife but have been good friends with many. Even so, this was an eye opening read. Jessica Taylor, Stephanie Gilbert, and Jenna Allen have brought their honest wit and wisdom to us via the written word. Some of the topics address… stereotypes, dealing with marital issues, making frien......more
