What are you supposed to do when your two-year-old bares his butt and pees in the street in full view of the congregation exiting church on a Sunday morning---and you're the pastor's wife? Told with unabashed honesty and an Erma Bombeck style of humor, the Confessions of a Misfit Pastor's Wife takes the reader behind the closed doors of the parsonage and into the private and sometimes not so private thoughts of the Lady of the Manse. Isolated, lonely, and kicking against the goads, the young pastor's wife tries to fulfill all the expectations placed on her with some success, some failures, and some major faux pas. Add the 1950s TV June Cleaver role model for women and the dilemma becomes apparent. This is a must read for anyone interested in the role of women in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Be prepared to laugh and cry with the Misfit Pastor's Wife.
