These devotions were written by a Pastor to his congregation during the time of pandemic restrictions when sanctuary doors were closed to any desiring to worship or pray or just needing a spiritual boost.Aiming for encouragement, these short devotions are an uplifting and interesting source of inspiration. They certainly lived up to their intended purpose of creating a bridge between the pulpit and pew during a long and hurtful silence from the traditionally comfortable environment of the sanctuary. Their content is chock full of true-to-life illustrations. You'll find many of them written directly for your need.A variety of styles are used to convey Christian principles and truths in a very upbeat format--sometimes humorous, sometimes serious; intellectual without being stodgy; often country colloquial in portraying real-life stories; always focusing on revealing more of the Christ of Calvary.Got about five minutes? Read one of these devotions. But look out! You might find yourself hooked into reading more than one or two...or more!

Description of book on Kindle and Paperback Amazon If you are, have been or desire to be the wife of a minister; this book is for you! (side note: don't feel disqualified by the title, it is for the faith filled believer also)The Pastors Wife has a unique role in the church. She wears many hats and is the silent server however if you ask a new PW what her role is she is likely to reply by saying 'I'm not to sure' or by saying 'I'm not really PW material'. She certainly doesn't view herself as an indispensable part of her husband's ministry and that is one of the things this book aims to do. This book was birthed out of the Coronavirus Pandemic. Initially inspired by six Pastor's wives faithfully writing and posting devotions on a WhatsApp group throughout the season of lockdown; the project was extended to many other PW's including missionary and evangelist wives. Included in this book are devotionals and testimonies that are raw, insightful, unusual, deep, heart-breaking, witty, inspiring, uplifting, encouraging, and convicting, but I can assure you, all will leave you with hope and vision. This book contains: 1.Five devotions per week 2.One 'Study/sermon notes' day per week (an opportunity for the reader to do their own personal study, or to take notes in services)3.One 'Testimony' day per week 4.One day in every month has been dedicated to a 'Historical Woman' who made her mark on the world for the sake of the gospel5.One day in every month has been dedicated to the 'Names of God'. 6.List of recommended books at the back of the book 7.Bible in one/two year reading plan. This has been custom made fom the book and the references appear on every page for ease. The reader has the option of reading the bible in one or two years. There are many aims for this book but the ultimate aim is to cause the reader to fall in love with Jesus and his word more than ever before. Pastor Wayman Mitchel once said 'You can have as much of Jesus as you want' the question to you is 'Are you having the lions share'? The answer to the ministry is not more money, possessions, people, education, bigger car or church building etc... the answer is always Jesus. How is your relationship with God? Is there an area in your life that you are lacking? Do you depend on him? Now is the time to equip yourself with the Word of God and together with these women's personal accounts you will soon come to realise that you are not alone. Prioritise your relationship with God, feel his ministering presence and rest assured that He is with you every day of the year.

The wife of a minister is made of the same stuff as any other woman, but her circumstances set her apart. If you’ve married into the ministry, you know the difficulty of balancing the demands of your church and your family, the stresses of clergy marriage, the pressure of unrealistic expectations, and the setbacks of ministry—and the joys. Other than Jesus himself, only a ministry wife really understands what it’s like to be a ministry wife. This devotional is written for you. In its pages, you’ll find not only wisdom and encouragement from God’s Word, but also the reassurance and solidarity of fellow ministry wives who are traveling the road with you and who know the territory. Kathy Chapell, Jeanne Hendricks, Barbara Hughes, Heather Olford, Jan Ortlund, Noël Piper, Sue Sailhamer, Paulette Washington, and many others share their experiences and their hearts in ninety daily reflections that begin with a Scripture verse and conclude with a prayer. Their insights are short, honest, intimate, and practical—and they always point you back to the One who is your ultimate source of help and guidance.
