Pastors' Wives Tell All

Episode 234: Choosing a Pause in Ministry


Listen Later

Ministry teaches you a lot about endurance—but it also teaches you about discernment.


In this episode, we share an important conversation we’ve spent a lot of time praying through. It’s one we didn’t arrive at quickly or lightly, but one that came through unity, clarity, and a deep trust in God’s leading.


We talk honestly about calling, capacity, and what faithfulness looks like when God invites you to respond differently than you expected. This episode includes a meaningful announcement, along with reflections on obedience, grief, gratitude, and hope for what God is still doing—both now and in the future.


If you’ve ever found yourself navigating a transition you didn’t see coming, or wondering how to follow God when the next step requires letting go, this conversation is for you.


Thank you for listening, walking with us, and trusting us with your hearts in this space.
