Debbie Wetzig serves with her husband, John, in Grenada, California. John is currently the interim pastor at the same church where he served as lead pastor from 1984-2016. Debbie and Chelsea Hall (a Flowers for the Pastor’s Wife contributor) served together as pastors’ wives at that church for several years when John was the lead […]
“Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see” (Hebrews 11:1). For years, my husband has handed me theological books to read, works that he has loved and that have impacted him. Sometimes I read them. Sometimes I just can’t. And sometimes I wait. That’s the […]
A couple of years ago, my cat was violently playing with her toy and she crashed into the leg of my telescope. I heard a terrible crash and the noise of a very fearful cat running to the other end of the house. I set the telescope back up and tried to console the cat. […]
It can sometimes be intimidating for pastors or pastor’s wives when former pastors and wives are a part of one’s congregation.

I threw up a prayer in frustration, “Lord, just help me find it!” I couldn’t find my Bible study workbook. I knew that I had the preschooler entertained for a few minutes, and I wanted to sit with a candle and my cup of coffee and dig into my Bible. But I knew I wouldn’t […]
I once watched a documentary about a little town in Iceland situated at the base of an active volcano. The town is absolutely breathtaking, rolling hills of vibrant green speckled with pristine white cottages. The black basalt rock of the mountains contrasts starkly against all the life surrounding it. What is incredible about this town […]
“There is no such thing as a God-forsaken town . . .” During a recent discussion at work, this phrase from a Carolyn Arends song came to my mind. We were talking about different towns in need of a Bible-teaching church and how Jesus sees them. “When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for […]
I squirmed in my seat as the pastor continued his sermon on honoring fathers. We had just finished singing praises about our good Father in heaven and His love for us. At age eleven, I was recently old enough to be past the limit for children’s church, but far from an adult. I sat next […]
