Welcome!

Welcome to what we believe is something truly unique on the Internet - and that is saying something! Welcome to what we pray will become a source of support and encouragement to you, as a minister's wife.

I am one of 5 contributors to this blog. We all hail from various parts of the Volunteer State and we all have different perspectives formed from our individual backgrounds and experiences. Yet, we are united in a God given desire for God to use each of us and this site to meet the often neglected needs of a pastor's wife.

Personally, I am honored, and even a little intimidated, to be writing along side these incredible ladies. To be honest, I am looking forward to gleaning from their wisdom and learning from your experiences as well. We really want this site to be interactive . . . so please feel free to respond to any of our posts.

So, here we go . . .

To begin this blog, we all wanted to take one our first posts to introduce ourselves. For some reason, in my preparations, I found this harder than I thought. When I first sat down to write my post, I found myself writing a long list of the many "hats" I wear - wife, mother, daughter, daughter-in law . . . Then I felt like I was filling out a job application and listing all my job experience - in ministry for 20+ years, accepted Christ as a child, serving the church and my husband for nearly 10 years as a minister's wife . . .

Yes, all these things about me are true. They tell you something about how I spend my time, BUT they are really just a list of facts anyone could find out about me without really knowing me.

You don't know my likes or dislikes. You don't know anything about my personality. You don't know how well I wear my "hats" - or even if I begin to glorify God in my attempts to serve Him.

I will write more soon in an effort to be more transparent. But, in the meantime, I have a question for you, dear reader: How do you let people really get to know the you that wears all those "hats"?
