What God hath joined together, let not the pastorate put asunder. This book contains more than a dozen case studies of contemporary pastor couples working through their stresses (low pay, culture shock, critical constituents, burnout, disaffected kids, moral temptations), followed by commentary from three notable Christian counselors.
Part of the “Leadership Library,” published by Word (1985).
