Dear Rick,<\/p>\n

Each week I read our denomination\u2019s Call Report which lists all the changes in public gospel ministry; it\u2019s a touchstone to our church body back \u201chome\u201d.\u00a0 Whenever I read names under the \u201cResigned\u201d category, I feel a pit in my stomach.\u00a0 By the grace of God, my husband\u2019s name has never been listed there.\u00a0 About 15 years ago, it very nearly was, but God used you powerfully to intervene.<\/p>\n

As a pastor\u2019s daughter and now a pastor\u2019s wife, I have witnessed the pressure public gospel ministry can have on the pastor and his family.\u00a0 Disputes within the Church; intense and often very public scrutiny of the pastor\u2019s vision, giftedness, and shortcomings; it wears him down.\u00a0 This can lead to restless nights, health problems, and feelings of isolation and uncertainty. It can also make him extra vulnerable to temptation in an attempt to medicate his pain or regain some feeling of control.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Who pastors the pastor when difficulties and temptations arise?\u00a0<\/p>\n
