Episode 4 - The Line Between

There’s a line between supporting ministry and being consumed by it — a line that can be hard to see when you’re the spouse, child, or close relative of someone in church leadership. In this episode of The Days Before You, Chelsea Sutherland, a nurse and pastor’s wife, opens up about navigating expectations, setting healthy boundaries, and learning how to serve from a place of joy rather than obligation. This conversation explores the often unseen tension between public roles and personal faith, and how finding that balance can lead to a more authentic spiritual life.
