The Art of Pastoring

How Marriage Fits into Ministry (and Vice Versa)

Ronnie Martin and Jared Wilson discuss the all-consuming nature of ministry and how that shapes the marriages of pastors.

When the phone may ring at any moment, a congregant’s heartbroken voice on the other end, pastors and their families can find themselves living on high alert. Perhaps without even realizing it at first, some ministry marriages end up struggling for space to breathe, rest, and focus.

On this episode of the Art of Pastoring, Ronnie Martin and Jared Wilson talk about the joys and challenges cultivating a flourishing marriage while in pastoral ministry. They talk about boundaries, seeking wisdom, and the weight of expectations on ministry spouses. Tune in for a word of encouragement and hope.
