Dear Nancy,

These monthly "HeartLines" are from my heart to your heart as we share a very unique and wonderful life, being a ministry wife. My prayer is that these letters will inspire, inform, or encourage you in some way. PLEASE take this to your wife if you, the minister, are receiving this newsletter!

Encouragement
As I was preparing my Sunday School lesson for next week entitled, When You're Discouraged, I thought - WOW! I can't wait to read this one!!! I KNOW, that like me, you have gone through at least one or two times of discouragement in your life as a minister's wife!! It seems comes with our territory - no, it comes with LIFE.

I want to share with you part of an article that was in the EXTRA! Weekly Supplemental Teaching Plans from LifeWay Christian Resources. It is an excellent article concerning something that we, in ministry, face all the time - compassion fatigue. Please click on the link below to read more...

Books, CD's & Movies
We are excited to provide a new resource for you! We have started a ministry wives lending library for you. We will put the list on our website soon so keep checking back to see what resources we have.

Some of the items we have to check out are: Grace Walk tapes and workbooks, the Beth Moore DVD study, Believing God, books on burnout and discouragement in the ministry, and what to do after termination. There are several books about being a pastor's wife, as well as general books on Christian living and growth.

We also have items in our office that can be purchased very inexpensively for your ladies events.

If you are interested, please contact us by phone or email.
