How Do I Look?
Hey Ministry Wives!
Ever wondered how you should dress? Of all the questions I had when I suddenly found myself the wife of a pastor, this one troubled me the most. Oh, my issues have evolved – trust me – but based on your emails this subject is very near and dear to your heart. I wrote an article for CWO this month called, The Clothes that Make the Woman, that addresses this very thing. Go check it out!
Also, if you are a lay person, please know this article is very relevant to you as well. You see, I don’t find anywhere in scripture where the PW is supposed to dress differently than any other woman at church. With that said, you might be interested in reading along also!
Great article! Keep ’em coming.
That’s a stand on your feet Amen!!
OH my heavens! Yes and AMEN!
Oh I’m heading over there to read now…this topic is near and dear to my heart :)
Oh how I know we had this talk about the homely look
Read your articles on CWO…yes, yes, yes! Very well put.
This is the sort of thing in your book?
Keep bringin it on!

I loved the article Lisa! Thank you!!
Great Article.
I was right there with you in 1994 with my flashy colors and leggings. Only I went to Moody and I could not wear the leggings under my long skirts becuase they said they looked like Lingere. hahha! Is that funny or what?
That was a truly difficult time in my life. It’s amazing how when someone else can dictate what you can or can’t wear, bitterness creeps in.
I am so thankful that the church we’ve been at for the past 16 years has never had a “dress code” for the pastor’s wives.
I feel for my sisters that have to wear nude panty hose. You will have a great reward in Heaven. :)
Lisa: As a pastor's wife for 31 years – oh how I thank you for this awesome and well-written article! I love to read your work on CWO.
Keep writing and thank you for being a blessing!
