10 Mistakes People Make with Pastor’s Wives (plus 1 bonus):

1. Are jealous of.
2. Think they get 2 for the price of 1 (when they hire her husband).
3. Don’t allow her to have her own life (so what if she has a career apart from the church?).
4. Talk bad about (criticize) her husband in front of her.
5. (To Pastors) Miss date nights.
6. Forget she has her own spiritual gifts and calling, too (many times apart and different from her husband).
7. Have expectations that not even Mother Theresa could have met.
8. Overlook the incredible pressures the ministry puts upon her family and marriage (to tear it apart).
9. Manipulate her to manipulate him (the Pastor).
10. (To Pastors) Put the church, duties and obligations before their wives (keep your marriage vows, sir!).

BONUS Forget the weight she bears for her husband (she is his most ardent supporter and prayer warrior).
