Question: How did y’all meet?

He was my pastor for years before we got married.

Question: How long was he single before y’all got married?

He started going through a separation/divorce in November, 2015 and we eloped in October of 2017 only 3 weeks after an engagement that came only a couple of months after dating. When you are our age, there’s no sense of waiting when you know that you know its meant to be!

Question: Do you have children?

He has 3 and I have none.

Question: Do you plan on having children and when?

We originally said we wanted 2 years together before having children. Last year around this time we said we would wait one more year. We just didn’t feel it was the right time.

Question: How is it coming into a marriage with children?

It can be a challenge for obvious reasons. However, totally worth it, because family is always worth fighting for! It takes a few years adjusting to a new way of life, but once you build that trust rooted in love it can be a beautiful thing.

Question: I feel like you two are the perfect couple. Do you all ever do your Bible studies together?

We do our individual studies, but will share with each other what we are studying and hearing from the Lord.

Question: How do you keep things fresh in your marriage?

We believe its a day to day exercise. Keep the fire burning by fanning the flames daily! You can do that by knowing and speaking your spouse’s love language. I recommend reading The Five Love Languages.

Question: Whats your age difference?

13 years difference, but it doesn’t feel like it! Its as if 10 years has been shaved off of his life.

Question: Whats your number one tip for a healthy marriage?

To have a relationship with Jesus. I couldn’t imagine having a healthy relationship with my husband without first having a relationship with God. Why? Because He convicts me when I’m wrong and when I get my heart right with the Lord, He works out what needs to be between my husband and I.

Question: Whats the number one advice you would give to a newly married couple?

I would say be patient in the adjustment period. When you start a new life together, its a new way of living for you both. You must allow grace in that time… for yourself and for one another.

Question: Whats it like being married to a Pastor?

Honestly, it feels like a normal life because we both have such a love for God and people.

Question: What challenges do you find being a Pastor’s wife?

Dealing with people’s perception of what they THINK a Pastor’s wife should be. I am just me and won’t change who I am just because I married a Pastor.

Question: Were you apprehensive about marrying someone married previously with a child?

No, not for a moment! I would never try to replace Kelbee’s Mom, but I will always love her like she’s my own.

Question: How do you deal with conflicting opinions on decisions regarding your child?

We always go back to the Word (Bible). Whoever is closest to what the Word says, wins. Ha!

Question: What do y’all do as a married couple for fun?

We LOVE to binge watch shows and go to the movies. Its relaxing and a great way to rewind from the day with one another.
