Marriage, ministry and priorities
One quote from a (male) speaker at last week's wives' conference. "I have always believed and said publicly that – if it came to it – I would willingly give up my ministry for the sake of my marriage."
There is a sense in which marriage and ministry cannot be compared to set off one against the other. They are of a different order. But ultimately, this speaker was right.
If you are married and in ministry, could you honestly say this? If not, why not?
