As previously stated Susie Hawkins and I sat down at the SBC Convention in Phoenix this summer,  tried to find a quiet spot (you can hear from the background noise that wasn't possible) to have a short chat about Minister's Wives and her book, "From One Ministry Wife to Another - Honest Conversations on Connections in Ministry"  Today, I have posted six (6) new short videos of our time together.  Take the next two weeks and watch these as your time allows - then meet us in the forums and post your comments.   Click on the one of the pictures below and have a listen.   Susie shares with candor and humor flavored with sage wisdom from above  about the "high call" of being a Minister's Wife!   (video times in parenthesis under each video title)

More InJoy has been postponed.  Please see below for a word from Diane Nix.
In Joy!

Last November, after 2 months of traveling,my family moved my mom in with us.  She is ill with Alzheimer's and she advancing quickly.  Meanwhile, I have been battling this summer with an illness that has been affecting my ability to multi-task as I LOVE to do.  I am on new medication and prayerful that in a few short months - my illness will be managed.  So after seeking the Lord in prayer and in His Word, reading Susie's book, and seeking counsel from the rest of the team  - we are going to scale back this fall and see what the new year holds.  As one team member put it - share your heart Diane - This is what CJ4Him is about.  So that is what I have done.  I welcome your prayers for my family as we seek to serve my mom in her final days.  I welcome your prayers for myself.  I want to finish well with great JOY.

Never Give Up!
