Notes From Your Bookseller Taking on the unique lens of the role a pastor's wife serves in the church and the community, this is equal parts actionable insights into the role as it is a history of its origins. "Provides a blistering critique of the narrowing options for female leadership in the evangelical church. . . . A powerful indictment of an unequal system."—Publishers Weekly As a pastor's wife for twenty-five years, Beth Allison Barr has lived with assumptions about what she should do and who she should be. In Becoming the Pastor's Wife, Barr draws on that experience and her academic expertise to trace the history of the role of the pastor's wife, showing how it both helped and hurt women in conservative Protestant traditions. While they gained an important leadership role, it came at a deep cost: losing independent church leadership opportunities that existed throughout most of church history and strengthening a gender hierarchy that prioritized male careers. Barr examines the connection between the decline of female ordination and the rise of the role of pastor's wife in the evangelical church, tracing its patterns in the larger history (ancient, medieval, Reformation, and modern) of Christian women's leadership. By expertly blending historical and personal narrative, she equips pastors' wives to better advocate for themselves while helping the church understand the origins of the role as well as the historical reality of ordained women.
