Two videos on “Being married to a street preacher,” by Jane Farrer
I wanted to give a preface to these two videos. Jane Farrer is the wife of open-air preacher Kevin Farrer. Their ministry is “Cry to God Ministries,” located in Calif. Kevin often does what’s called “crying out” or being a “crier” (please watch Kevin’s video explaining this here). He’s been open-air preaching for 30 years.
Jane speaks on how important it is for a wife to support and encourage her husband’s open-air preaching ministry.
In video #1 Jane warned of wives “nagging,” or “complaining” about their husbands’ open-air ministry. She warned how they could actually “hinder” the Lords work in their ministry. I am thankful that my wife does not nag, complain, nor hinder the Lords work in our ministry. She’s an excellent supporter of my open-air ministry.
In video #2 Jane tells how the wife must be an encourager, because sadly most local churches won’t even support street preaching. She then shares how her pastors wife once “sowed a seed of bitterness” by making a rude remark about her husband’s absence one Sunday morning (while he was street preaching at a large event). Oh how easy it is for one to sow a seed of bitterness. Consequently the recipient must labor on their knees in prayer, asking the Lord to take those seeds away (thou laboring on our knees in prayer is always a good thing).
Sister Jane thank you for your videos. Brother Kevin the Lord was gracious in bestowing such a wonderful beautiful gracious wife to you. I am thankful for mine as well. Keep up the good work. “Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord” (Proverbs 18:22).”
