PCP 067: 3 Ways Pastors Can Help Their Wives Thrive In Ministry

A healthy marriage leads to a healthy ministry.

Welcome to welcome to episode 67 of Practical Church Planting.

One of the difficulties about being in vocational ministry is how much you have to give. You give much of your time, money, nights, and days off helping other people. While that can be, and is, a privilege and a joy, it can also be hard at times. Because of that, there are times when you can (and should) do things to help encourage your wife and ensure she isn’t being burnt out. Here are three ways you can help your wife thrive in ministry that we discuss in this episode:

• Be picky about who is in your small group
• Your wife doesn’t have to be involved in the kid's ministry
• Make sure your wife has at least one (if not more) night out with her friends a month
