Is the Pastor's Wife entitled to Call herself Pastor by Association?

Is it by Entitlement or Hard Work?

Let me ask this...

I could see someone earning this title by working hard at home and at church.. but are they just entitled to it by being married to the Pastor?

Does your Pastor's Wife call herself Pastor?

That really bugs me and I don't think it's an entitlement just because you are married to a pastor.

Does she play an active role at the church?

It seems many have gone that route and they collect a paycheck from the Church too along with the Pastor's Salary...

again I don't have a problem with it if they are reliable and do the work of a Pastor... but just to claim the title and really do nothing seems to be the route some go...

When they are married they are 1, physically, in purpose, in ministry...that's all I have to say!
