Hello, everyone. Welcome to another Greatheart’s Table Conversation for Rainy Day People, which is actually a reprise of our original conversation first posted in September of 2024. In this conversation I speak with three women with a wealth of ministry experience to discuss the unique challenges and joys of serving as the spouse of a pastor or an elder or other ministry leader in the church. 

The conversation was very fruitful and has been helpful to others who find themselves in similar roles. Please pass it along to those you know who might benefit. 

I’m breaking the conversation into two parts to make it more digestible. The second part will release in September. 

Thanks for your support, encouragement, and word of mouth promotion!
