Ministry Leaders and their families live in a “glass house”—an environment where they are left vulnerable to the stress of ministry, the criticism of others, and feel the spotlight on their personal weaknesses.

Lifeway’s “The Glass House” is a space where ministry leaders will shed light on the challenges they often don’t feel permission to talk about. Listeners who work in the trenches of church life will feel seen and gain tools to navigate ministry and life. Those who live outside this “glass house” will better understand what it’s like to dwell there.

Join Ben and Lynley Mandrell for these shockingly confessional—yet redemptive—conversations.

When the Pastor's Wife Isn't Accepted with Mark and Michelle Croston
byBen and Lynley Mandrell

Today on The Glass House, we are welcoming Mark and Brenda Croston to the show.  Mark serves at Lifeway as the Director for Black Church Ministries, and Brenda is the founder of Simple Truth Ministries, as well as an author, speaker and trainer for Lifeway.  When Mark was pastoring, his first wife died of cancer.  He and Brenda are sharing their story today of how they both experienced deep grief and loss, what it was like for God to bring them together and how that impacted their church.

 

We’d love to hear your feedback at President@lifeway.com
