Confessions From the Pastor's Wife

A pastor's wife is certainly a rare species with a very peculiar calling. She is one flesh with the pastor. And if he is worthy of the title, this means she is one flesh with a difficult man.

The pastor's wife will often keep her husband's long hours, shoulder his pressures, feel his disappointments, and suffer his defeats--often as profoundly and as deeply as he does. She will be thrust into the role chief analyst of both his sermons and his administrative innovations. She may well be called upon to catch grammatical errors and to sniff out inconsistencies in his letters to the church and to brainstorm solutions to problems no one else can solve.

Jodie Moore somehow manages to balance her life as pastor's wife, Assistant Principal and mother of three boys. Jodie's Blog, "Confessions of the Pastor's Wife" is a tool where she can share her life lessons and insights as our pastor's wife.
