By Faith With Christine Hoover

Being a ministry wife is a vocation without a job description. So often, we know exactly what our husband’s roles will be within the church, but are uncertain about how we should be operating daily in our ministry roles. Tara Dew, Director of Thrive, a training program for ministry wives at New Orleans Seminary, joins me today to discuss the importance of being a lifelong learner and the joy that comes from learning to thrive. EPISODE GUIDE If God is encouraging you to pursue training, trust Him, even if you don’t know what the end result will be. Dedicate yourself to being a lifelong learner: utilize resources that help you thrive in the ministry God placed you. You are gifted and indispensable, essential to the work of the church. BEST QUOTES “I believe wholeheartedly that if we can encourage and equip ministry wives, then they’re going to help encourage their husbands, and their husbands will stay in ministry and the churches will stay as lighthouses in their communities.”  -T
