Welcome to a new blog just for you—the pastors’ wives of Sovereign Grace Ministries.
Some of you dear ladies have grown up along with this ministry. You were among the original rag-tag group of young people with lots of passion for the Savior and the local church—and not much else! Some of you are newcomers—from the US and around the world. You’re trying to figure out who everyone is and how we’re connected.
All of you love the Savior. All of you serve your husbands and children. All of you sacrifice for your churches.
And we want to serve you.
We want to help you model, teach and pass on the virtues of biblical femininity to the women in your church. We also want to encourage and support you in this exciting and challenging, perplexing and rewarding call to be a pastor’s wife. Most of all we want to regularly remind you of the sweetest truth of all—that God sent his Son Jesus Christ to save sinful women like us.
Each Monday (hopefully!) our posts will cover a wide variety of content:
• Relevant Resources – book reviews, helpful messages, useful links
• Meet the Pastor’s Wife—get to know other SGM pastors’ wives from Cherry Hill, New Jersey to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
• Life of the Pastor’s Wife – encouragement, lessons learned, and practical tips from regular writers and guest authors
• You ask – send us your questions and we’ll find a pastor’s wife (or pastor!) who has an answer
• We ask – we’ll pose a single question to several pastors’ wives and post the answers.
• Women’s Ministry Ideas – we’ll scour the churches for the most creative, effective ideas and pass them along to you
What else would you like to see? Send us your ideas, your questions, your comments! Kimm Harvey and Janis Shank have graciously agreed to help me in this endeavor, but we’d love to hear from you. We can’t reply (we know you understand) but we’ll read them all, and your requests will help shape our content.
Try as we might—there’s no way to thank you enough for the way you serve your husband, your family and the church. This little blog is just a start.
Thank you.
Carolyn Mahaney
