Description

If you've ever wondered about the lives of a clergy family, Our Life in the Church: A Description of Over 50 Years in the Ministry Where We Learned to Enjoy, Thrive and be Happy as a Clergy Family will provide a behind-the-scenes look at such a family's life. With insights into decades spent dealing with unique situations and being perceived as "different", it will explore how one family overcame the "challenge of holiness".Written over a number of years, and intended for seminarians and church families who want to know more about the lives of their leaders and their leaders' families, the book aims to not only paint a clear picture of the life of a Christian family, but to teach readers how to pass the insights within to their neighbors and friends.
