A mission to heal marriages. Strengthen ministries.
Too many Christian marriages are quietly suffering.
Pastors, missionaries, and faithful couples, deeply committed to God, are living in marital strain and ministry burnout. Isolation and financial limitations often prevent couples from getting the help they desperately need. These burdens weigh heavily on the leaders of God’s people—and often, they have nowhere safe to turn.
That’s why Renewing Grace Together is thrilled to launch the Renewing Marriage Initiative—to fund biblically grounded, high-impact support for Christian marriages, especially those serving in ministry or facing financial hardship.
Couples who serve in Christian ministry often face a unique set of challenges that stem from the demands of their spiritual, emotional, and relational responsibilities.
Time & energy demands
- Long hours and unpredictable schedules can leave little time for personal connection.
- Ministry often involves extended time commitments, which can interfere with family routines and rest.
Emotional & spiritual burnout
- Constantly caring for others’ spiritual and emotional needs can lead to compassion fatigue.
- Ministry couples may feel pressure to always appear spiritually strong, even when struggling themselves.
financial stress
- Many ministry roles are underpaid or rely on donations, leading to financial insecurity.
- This can create tension, especially if one spouse feels the burden of providing for the family.
conflict over ministry priorities
- Disagreements may arise over how much time and energy should be devoted to ministry versus family.
- One partner may feel neglected or secondary to the church’s needs.


lack of privacy & high expectations
- Ministry families often live in a “glass house,” where their lives are closely observed by the congregation.
- There can be unrealistic expectations for perfection in parenting, marriage, and personal conduct.
Role confusion & identity struggles
- Spouses may feel unclear about their role in the ministry or feel overshadowed by the other’s calling.
- This can lead to resentment or loss of personal identity, especially if one partner sacrifices their own goals.
isolaton & loneliness
- It can be difficult to form authentic friendships within the church due to power dynamics or confidentiality concerns.
- Ministry couples may feel isolated from peers who don’t understand their unique pressures.
