Описание: While her husband pursued a four-year Master of Divinity degree from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, Kate Meadows wondered how she fit into the process of her husband becoming a pastor. In the Lutheran Church- Missouri Synod, only men can be ordained as pastors. The men who come to the seminary have a well paved road ahead of them. The women who come with those men dont. As women, we ask ourselves, Who am I in this process? and Where do I fit?
Kate never envisioned herself as a pastors wife; in fact, she wasnt sure she wanted to be one. Yet, if God was leading her husband into the ministry, who was she to say No?
And what was it about that term pastors wife, that made her uneasy, anyway? What did it even mean to be a pastors wife in the modern day?
At the seminary, Kate started talking to other women who had faithfully followed their husbands on the path to ministry. Through a series of more than fifty interviews, she learned that the journey of becoming a pastors wife is rich with questions, discovery, and joy.
Faith to Follow chronicles the womans experience of preparing to become a pastors wife. It also may be a springboard for dialogue within churches across America, about the importance of encouraging and cultivating future church leaders and raising up strong families in the Christian faith.
