The Church Hub for Ministry Wives with Andrea GriffithHost Andrea Griffith kicks off the very first season with a focus on resilience—a quality every ministry wife needs but few talk about honestly. Joined by author and speaker Ann Wilson (FamilyLife Today, Vertical Marriage), Andrea unpacks how resilience is formed through surrender, vulnerability, and a gospel-rooted life in the Word. From the power of words in marriage to the courage of sharing hidden pain, Ann shares stories of friendship, struggle, and God’s sustaining grace. This conversation is a reminder that resilience isn’t about having it all together—it’s about bouncing back through Christ’s strength, authentic community, and the hope of the gospel.
