The Double Life of a Minister’s Wife inspired me to face my trials and to keep God first in my life all the time. My influence on people is uplifting to me. And even when they try to derail me, I don’t let anybody dictate who I am, what I should be in life, or what they want me to do. I have done a lot of things that a real overprotective mother, wife, daughter, and saint would do—maybe not in that exact order. I am who I am, and what God has for me is for me. Nobody can tell me differently or lead me to believe otherwise. So I tilt my hat to each and every one who took the time out to and read and be a part of my testimonies and my life story that I have shared. There is a story that must be told and a novel that must be read, and I know that you enjoyed being fed. Remember, if you doubt yourself, then how can you relay your message to help the next fellow man or woman? Be blessed and look for book number 4 and many more to follow, even a movie. It’s all about the God in me! This is a short story of a woman wanting to be loved but didn’t know that she was in a relationship with the devil himself. Certain people will do whatever it takes to get a person, but when you succeed, then you get too comfortable in a web of deceit and betrayal, headed for derailment. I was blinded by the flesh instead of obeying my heavenly Father’s commandment and seeking God first. I was so hungry for love and was tired of the backstabbing and continuous betrayal of past relationships that I trusted and believed this man that was sent to destroy and confuse my mind and to make me switch sides. This evil person did everything up under the table and had me so blinded that all his lies were the ties between the sweet and the bitter, which made me be more scornful and made me wish I was never born!

She never expected to be a minister’s wife. And the life she discovered was more challenging—and more beautiful—than she could have anticipated. We all wrestle with tough questions about life and faith, and Karen Stiller has learned that answers don’t come any easier when you’re married to the minister. What does it mean to live faithfully in our complicated world? Is there a place here for me—the real me? What does everyone expect of me, and what if I fail? In The Minister’s Wife, Karen shines a light on the rhythms and tough realities of the spiritual life for each and every one of us. She explores how community helps us grow; the unexpected beauty of doubt; the messy pain of families and funerals; how church can hurt and heal; and the beauty of showing up when sometimes it is more appealing to go to a coffee shop on a Sunday morning (even when you’re the pastor’s wife). Warm, witty, and achingly honest, The Minister’s Wife is a memoir in essays on choosing to belong, and an invitation to join a spiritual adventure.

Although most evangelical traditions bar women from ordained ministry, many women have carved out unofficial positions of power in their husbands' spiritual empires or their own ministries. The biggest stars write bestselling books, grab high ratings on Christian television, and even preach. Bowler offers a sympathetic and revealing portrait of megachurch women celebrities, showing how they must balance the demands of celebrity culture and conservative, male-dominated faiths. And black celebrity preachers' wives carry a special burden of respectability. A compelling account of women's search for spiritual authority in the age of celebrity. -- adapted from jacket

Every pastor's wife is a faithful servant and leader in her own right. She has great influence on her church, her community, her family, and her husband, and she finds joy in seeing God move in the lives of others. Yet she also faces unique challenges that too often go unnoticed and unaddressed. At times, a pastor's wife may feel she can't talk about her struggles even with those who are closest to her, which can leave her feeling alone, depleted, and misunderstood. She may settle for this way of living, but that's not God's desire for her. Christine Hoover knows firsthand the unique struggles and opportunities afforded a pastor's wife--she's been filling that role for more than 20 years. Coming alongside as an understanding friend, she offers encouragement and guidance to the struggling pastor's wife, showing her how to make meaningful personal relationships with God, her husband, her children, her church community, and other women--relationships that will sustain her and help her thrive.

When Pastor Matthew Winkler was found dead at his Fourth Street Church of Christ parsonage in Selmer, Tennessee, both police investigators and parishioners were shaken and mystified: How could evil strike this cradle of faith? Meanwhile, Mrs. Winkler and her three daughters were still missing... A frantic search for Mary Winkler and the girls ensued. Once they were found, on a beach in Alabama, Mary was charged with murdering her husband in cold blood. But why did Mary pull the trigger? What sexual and psychological abuses did she allege she had suffered? In the months that followed, the crime—and the Winkler's marriage—would be exposed by the national media; Mary herself even appeared on Oprah. Set in a world of domineering men, obedient wives, and unshakable faith, this is the true story about what happened to Matthew Winkler and THE PASTOR'S WIFE
