We developed these prayer walks as a way of experiencing some freshness in our times with the Lord. We walk together through a passage of Scripture, taking time to ask some questions to help you reflect and invite the Lord to give you new insight into who He is, who you are and how He's calling you to walk. Whether you grab your journal and write or use this as you walk, run or hike, we pray it will help you dig deeper and experience His presence.

In this second part of the conversation, Coletta and Tammy will build off of the processes and tools we learned in "Infidelity in Your Ministry Marriage". We'll look specifically at how a pastor's wife can walk alongside someone else going through infidelity. When a marriage comes to this cliff, it is common for a pastor and his wife to be the 'first on the scene' and are faced with helping them find their way through. There are so many things we can do to help, but often with good intentions, can say and do things that harm. Get some new ways to think about this sacred space of someone's pain that God has asked you to enter into.

Coletta and Tammy Gustafson (LPC, trauma specialist, founder: betrayalhealing.com) talk about dealing with infidelity when it's your own marriage. This conversation is specifically for those in ministry because there aren't many resources for us. But much of the process Tammy walks us through is helpful if you are walking through it with someone else. She helps ministry/pastors' wives to walk in wisdom in this, helping them do it in a way that is healthy. If this is something you are facing, there are many practicals to help you take the next step for long-term healing and some encouraging words to help you see you aren't alone.

Coletta talks with guest LeighAnn Brisbin (LPC, ministry trauma specialist) from FreeToBe Ministries about how pastors and ministry wives can walk with people through crisis. They'll talk about the uniqueness of a Pastors' wive's spot, where you are often given trust you didn't earn, simply because of who you are married to – and invited into very difficult and painful situations – but places where God has led and will use you. Coletta and LeighAnn dig into how to manage your own heart, managing the tension between healthy boundaries and loving sacrificially, developing your team, and compartmentalize. And finally, how to navigate when multiple crisis come at the same time – and finding your lifelines. (I wish I'd had this 30 years ago)
