Amare, This forum is extremely limited for giving advice for such situations. This is not because God's word is limited, but rather because there are many variables that could be in play. We have no idea why your husband is leaving, nor do we know where he intends to go or whether he simply plans to abandon church altogether. Many other details could drastically effect a change in our answer. So the point being, you need to seek some solid biblical counsel in your life on this question. That being said, I will give my attempt to answer the question in the raw as it is. 1. If your husband plans to go to either no church or an unbiblical church then I would remain in your current church. 2. If your husband plans to go to a biblical church then I would stick by your husband. The only time that you should ever place anything over your submission to your husband is when that submission would mean violating a direct command for God. Attending Church is a command of God. Which particular church you attend (assuming they are both sound) is not an explicit command of God. Submission to your husband is a command of God. Further, the family united in worship is meant to be an indispensible foundation for the Christian religion. 3. Prior to doing either, I would try to lovingly discuss this decision with your husband. If your husband is a man that is serious about following Christ, there are clear biblical commands on attempting to reconcile with regards to whatever disagreement he has with the pastor's wife. Now here is especially where the details matter. For some roots of the disagreement scripture would tell your husband to say nothing and simply show Christian love despite the differences. For some there would need to be discussion and attempt at reconciliation and for yet others it would be time to confront the pastor's wife over the sin. I can't tell you which is appropriate, but I can tell you that simply getting mad and leaving is almost certainly not what his Lord would have him do. If you can not speak to him about it without it becoming a fight or without being gentle then I would simply refer you to points 1 or 2. Understand this, even if your husband is the one who is wrong, you are still called to follow him so long as he does not press you to violate clear commands of Gods (1 Peter 3:1). Be very careful of those whose advice to you is to be faithful to God by means of rebellion against God appointed authority. I hope this is of some help. In Christ, Beja |
