Is the idea of becoming a Pastors wife scary to most woman?



Do most women shy away from someone if they know that person is going into the ministry full time?



Is it just because they themselves are not called, or is it the thought itself that scares them?



This is the last question I promise! lol





Would you date a person that was going into the ministry and why. or why not?





To all the Ladies that reply, Thank You and God Bless You!

No, it is not scary at all. Personally speaking, I prefer to minister to more than just one church, because we are called to love our neighbor as ourselves. Secondly, I was married before and I see that it is much better to not be married because I can care more for the things of the Lord, rather than to just please my husband (1Cor 7:34).

As I am picked by GOD to work for HIM am I not scared, it is a dream come true for me.



You should really look for someone like me that am already there because take in a woman into ministry that am not called to do it can destroy all your work for GOD and to reach your goals.



She can trick you to do something GOD don�t like and as women are good in trick men will it happen.



If a woman not want to be in a ministry with you should she not be there but I know many woman not called marry a man in the ministry because the money it gives to many men in the ministry that am there for not the right reason.



Many famouse preachers have showed people their wealth and wrong women can go after money they believe can be there ( that am not what the real ministry look like as we give out money when we have it )



I can ask the same as I have been here in 3 years and many men in the ministry have read my ad but they have never take any contact so I assume they don�t want a wife that am Pastor.



I am ordained Pastor and single and can�t get a man to talk to me.



I think male Pastor have easier to find a wife than a female Pastor finding a good husband.

i know that i ran from it for a long time, evento the pooint of running from God because I thought I wasn't good enough. Many issues in my childhood led me to believe that God could not use me. I was married for 21 yrs and many of those years were spent involved in ministry..youth pastor, associate pastor and sr pastor. I will not go into detail as to why i am in the process of a divorce, but I will say that, for myself, I would go back into the ministry of pastaoring again. I do have some scars from the ministry, but I would do it al again...well maybe not ALL.

I have the conviction that, as a christian, i have a responsibiility to not lead people astray but to lead them to Christ. As a pastors wife, I have the responsibility to be an example even ifr that means going to the altar to get somehting right in my life with the whole church looking on:excited: You must, as a christian, be willing to do what is needed in the church. As a pastors wife you must be willing to NOT do EVERYTHING that is needed in the church.

As far as would i date someone who was called into the ministry, you bet I would. It does scare me a little due to some past hurts from so called "believers" as well as my former husband, but God's grace is sufficient for me.

I hope this has helped you

Be blessed and be a blessing

( I saw that on someone's profile and i really like it, so it is borrowed:glow:)

Wow! Just read all the replies. Cannot imagine why anyone would be afraid. I do understand that not all feel called. But we all are called to minister in some way. That is why it is so important to seek the will of God about your ministry, where you work and who you marry. If we, as Christians, would seek God for our lives the way we should, men and women, we could so easily flow with the Spirit. Not to say we will not have battles. Everyone does, because we do not wrestle against flesh and blood. But to be in His will, have His covering, and know you are making a difference because of His anointing, is the most precious place to be. We simply have to believe in Him and trust Him. So no, the idea of becoming a Pastor's wife is not scary. If that is the will of God, that is exactly where I would want to be - no questions asked.

Not if you're a female called to ministry too.



If we read in the qualifications for Elders/Bishops/Deacons etc, we notice that there are qualifications listed for "their wives" too.... this suggests to me that the two becoming one is not just a physical reference, when one enters ministry they are in effect both entering ministry.



The Lord has laid it on my heart to be in ministry alongside my future husband, and this has been confirmed by those around me who are brothers and sisters in Christ. The lady who is a very dear dear sister to me and has been like a spiritual mum to me has told me that she is certain God is preparing me for a life in ministry alongside a godly husband. Especially in the areas of being an example of a godly wife and godly female, proverbs 31 and titus 2.. lol



So yes, I would say some may find it scary if it's not something a lady is called into, just hang on in there and you'll find that God will send you a lady whose heart will rejoice at the prospect of being in ministry alongside her husband.



I'm waiting patiently for a gentleman to walk alongside in ministry, but God is still preparing my heart and He will send someone when He knows the time is right. I am sure He will do the same for you.



May God bless you brother
