Pastors' Wives Tell All
Episode 222: Lydia Gilbert Interview - Finding Jesus After Legalism Nearly Broke Her

In this heartfelt episode, we sit down with someone extra special—Stephanie’s sister-in-law, Lydia Lusby! Born and raised in Statesboro, Georgia, as a pastor’s kid with three older brothers, Lydia knows what it’s like to grow up in the thick of church life. Today, she and her husband, Jeremiah, call Missouri home, where she works as a customer service assistant and appliance retail manager at Lightwise—and serves faithfully at her local church as both a worship leader and small group leader.


Lydia opens up about her journey through the Independent Fundamental Baptist (IFB) Church, sharing how the weight of strict rules and gender expectations once shaped—and nearly broke—her faith. She gets real about the pain of witnessing hypocrisy and control within the church, the season when she walked away, and the powerful way God met her in that space to bring healing, grace, and true freedom in Jesus.


This conversation is raw, redemptive, and full of hope for anyone who’s ever confused religion with relationship.


Takeaways:

  • Growing up in a strict religious environment can distort our view of God.
  • Legalism often leads to shame, fear, and burnout.
  • Walking away from religion doesn’t mean walking away from God.
  • Jesus invites us into grace, not guilt.
  • Healing from church hurt is possible.
  • Freedom in Christ brings joy, authenticity, and peace.


Join us for this powerful story of redemption and grace—you’ll leave encouraged, challenged, and reminded that Jesus is better than religion every single time.

Pastors' Wives Tell All
Episode 220: Larinda Horton Interview - That Time Our Counselor Counseled Us Live (Yes, Really)

Ever felt like ministry life is equal parts beautiful and exhausting? 


We get it. That’s why we brought in our counselor (and dear friend), Larinda Horton — a pastor’s kid, pastor’s wife, and licensed professional counselor with a heart for Jesus and for those serving in ministry.


In this episode, Larinda gets real about the struggles pastors’ wives face: loneliness, unrealistic expectations, boundary-setting, the pressure on marriage, and the desperate need for true friendships. She doesn’t just talk about it — she gives practical wisdom, points us to the hope we have in Christ, and even counsels us a little live on the mic (yes, you’ll want to hear that part).


If you’ve ever wondered whether counseling is for you, how to protect your marriage from ministry burnout, or why self-care isn’t selfish — this conversation will encourage your heart.


What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • Why growing up in ministry shapes the way we view church life.
  • The reality of loneliness in leadership (and how to find safe friendships).
  • How boundaries protect your mental health and marriage.
  • Why counseling is a strength, not a weakness, for pastors and their spouses.
  • Navigating expectations from others — and what to do when they become too heavy.
  • The importance of self-care (without guilt).
  • What to do when you’re dealing with difficult or even narcissistic personalities in ministry.

Pastors' Wives Tell All
Spill the Tea: We Cancelled Our Hometown Retreat & Here's Why

Ever feel like you’re running on empty but still trying to pour into everyone else? Same. 


In this episode, we’re getting real about something super tough—we had to cancel a retreat we were SO looking forward to. Why? Because one of our bodies, hearts, and minds was waving the white flag. We needed rest. We needed space. And we needed each other.


We’re talking all things boundaries, burnout, and how hard (but holy!) it is to say “no”—even when it’s to something good. Ministry life can be beautiful and heavy, and we’re learning to care for our souls before they scream at us.


So grab your coffee, kick off your shoes, and join us for a heart-to-heart about friendship, self-care, and why letting people in can change everything.


 Real-Life Takeaways:

  • Saying “no” to ourselves? Oof. But necessary.
  • Breaks aren’t weak—they’re wise.
  • Your body will speak up if you’re not listening.
  • Boundaries = loving others and yourself well.
  • Self-care is spiritual, y’all.
  • Leaning on your people isn’t a burden—it’s a blessing.
  • Asking for help ≠ failing.
  • You serve better when you’re whole.
  • Saying no can actually bring you peace (what a concept!).
  • Friendship = showing up and slowing down together.

Pastors' Wives Tell All
Episode 219: Pastor Wifey Chronicles Part 2 - Real Stories of the Awkward & the Hilarious

Ministry isn’t all Sunday school crafts, sermons, and Sunday morning smiles—sometimes it’s just plain hilarious. In this episode, we’re reading stories submitted by our amazing listeners—those laugh-out-loud, cringe-worthy, and downright strange moments that only pastors’ wives can truly appreciate.


From bizarre incidents in church nurseries to embarrassing moments during services, this conversation highlights the lighter side of being a pastor's wife. We laugh, we groan, and we swap our own “yep, that happened to me too” reactions along the way.


So grab your coffee, settle in, and get ready to laugh until your stomach hurts—because awkward, funny, and unexpected moments are basically part of the job description. And hey, sometimes laughter really is the best ministry tool. 


Takeaways:

  • Pastors' wives often face unique and humorous challenges in their roles.
  • Awkward situations can arise unexpectedly in church settings.
  • Community support is vital in navigating ministry life.
  • Children often provide comic relief in serious situations.
  • Misunderstandings can lead to embarrassing moments in ministry.
  • It's important to maintain a sense of humor in challenging times.
  • Sharing stories can foster connection among ministry leaders.
  • Cultural differences can lead to unexpected situations in church.
  • Navigating relationships in ministry requires sensitivity and care.
  • Humor can be a powerful tool for coping with stress in ministry.

Pastors' Wives Tell All
Spill the Tea: Nutella Love, Leadership Books & Rapid Fire Thoughts

The always fabulous Kat Armstrong is back, and this time we're keeping it light, hilarious, and oh-so-relatable. In this episode of Pastors' Wives Tell All, we hit Kat with some rapid-fire questions—from favorite foods to guilty-pleasure TV—and she does not disappoint (Nutella lovers, unite).


We also share a few cringey-but-funny ministry moments, talk leadership books (shoutout to Rocket Fuel), and bond over our love for all things British and binge-worthy. It's a feel-good convo full of laughter, friendship, and the kinds of stories that remind us we’re all just doing our best… sometimes with chocolate in hand.


In This Episode:

  • Kat spills her obsession with Nutella & tea
  • Why The West Wing still reigns supreme
  • Rapid-fire questions that reveal way too much
  • Leadership tips... sandwiched between giggles
  • Embarrassing ministry moments (because #reallife)
  • The joy of friendship and sharing stories that matter


Takeaways:

  • British dialogue + tea = Kat’s happy place
  • Nutella is the real MVP of snacks
  • Leadership is serious... but laughter is essential
  • TV > fiction books (Kat said it, not us)
  • Public speaking mishaps happen to everyone
  • Sharing awkward stories can build deep connections
  • Friendship and humor make ministry more bearable

Come for the Nutella, stay for the laughter—and maybe grab a spoon while you’re at it.

Pastors' Wives Tell All
Episode 216: Haley Borin Interview - Balancing Family & Ministry When You and Your Spouse Serve On Staff at Separate Churches

In this episode of Pastors’ Wives Tell All, we’re sitting down with our real-life friend, Haley Borin, to talk about something most ministry couples never imagine doing: serving at two different churches at the same time.


Haley and her husband, Will, have been in ministry for 13 years. Today, Haley serves as a communications director at a church in Columbus, GA, while Will is an associate pastor in Phenix City, AL. Together, they’re navigating what it looks like to balance dual roles in two separate ministries—while also growing in their marriage, family, and personal walks with Christ.


Haley shares openly about the ups and downs of this unique journey: from the challenges of comparison and busyness to the joy of walking faithfully in God’s calling. She reminds us that while ministry can stretch us in unexpected ways, it is possible to thrive when you’re grounded in community, intentional with self-care, and abiding in Christ.

Pastors' Wives Tell All
Episode 215: Should Pastors Preach Politics?

In this episode of Pastors’ Wives Tell All, the hosts dive into a raw and timely conversation about the weight pastors and ministry leaders carry in seasons of tragedy, grief, and political tension. They reflect on the overwhelming expectations placed on church leaders, the dangers of letting politics overshadow the gospel, and the deep need for prayer and community support. This is not a political episode—it’s a call to remember that Jesus, not an agenda, is our message.


Together, they explore how to handle disagreements with love, why the Church must prioritize the Bible over political opinions, and how fear can drive harmful actions when faith should lead us. Through honest dialogue, the hosts remind us to stay grounded in what God has called each of us to do—because people matter more than politics.


Key Takeaways:

  • This isn’t about politics—it’s about Jesus.
  • Pastors face heavy, often unrealistic expectations.
  • Grief and tragedy impact faith communities deeply.
  • The Church must preach the gospel, not political agendas.
  • Disagreements should be navigated with love and respect.
  • Prayer is vital for our nation, our churches, and our communities.
  • No matter someone’s beliefs, we should never rejoice in death.
  • Fear often fuels negative actions—faith must guide us instead.
  • God calls us to obedience, not to living under others’ expectations.

Pastors' Wives Tell All
Episode 213: Pastor Wifey Chronicles - Real Stories of the Awkward & the Hilarious

Ministry isn’t all Sunday school crafts, sermons, and Sunday morning smiles—sometimes it’s just plain hilarious. In this episode, we’re reading stories submitted by our amazing listeners—those laugh-out-loud, cringe-worthy, and downright strange moments that only pastors’ wives can truly appreciate.

From pregnancy comments gone wrong to unforgettable church encounters (yep, we’ve all been there), these listener stories remind us that ministry life is as unpredictable as it is beautiful. We laugh, we groan, and we swap our own “yep, that happened to me too” reactions along the way.

So grab your coffee, settle in, and get ready to laugh until your stomach hurts—because awkward, funny, and unexpected moments are basically part of the job description. And hey, sometimes laughter really is the best ministry tool. 


Takeaways:

  • Ministry comes with its own brand of comedy.
  • Awkward moments = future great stories.
  • Laughing together builds community and reminds us we’re not alone.

Spill the Tea: A Conference of Testimony

What happens when you gather a room full of women, mix in a whole lot of Jesus, and add some testimonies that hit straight to the heart? Answer: you get the BEST conference we’ve ever been to—and yes, we’re still talking about it.


In this short but powerful episode, we spill the details on what made this women’s conference unforgettable. From personal stories that left us mascara-streaked (in the best way) to the freedom that comes when you finally say out loud what God’s been doing in your life, this conversation is a love letter to the power of storytelling and community.


 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

  • Why testimonies aren’t just for Sunday mornings behind a microphone.
  • The surprising emotional freedom that comes from sharing your story (yes, even the messy parts).
  • How community makes those “me too” moments possible—and powerful.
  • Why obedience matters when God says, “Speak now.”
  • Our favorite moments from a conference that might just go down as our all-time fave.

Whether you’ve been nervous to share your testimony or you’re the first one in line with the mic, this episode will remind you that your story matters—and it just might be the key to unlocking someone else’s breakthrough.
