The Blessings...and Curses...of Being a Clergy Couple

Life is stressful for everyone these days, and that certainly includes pastors! But what if there were two pastors in the family?  Does that mean twice as much stress?  We begin a two-part exploration into what it is like to be a clergy couple where both spouses are actively engaged in pastoral ministry.  We will talk with two clergy couples who are in very different settings but who also share the joys and challenges that come with this rare but growing subgroup of pastors.  In this episode we will talk with the Reverends Jay and Dr. Erin Bowers who serve two different churches in two different denominations, and are parenting two daughters, as well!
