All Churched Out

The Weary Wife of the Pastor-Book 1

By: Denise Cook-Godfrey

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Forced into the new First Lady role at Shady Hill Missionary Baptist Church, Leah Westchester-Jackson’s true gifts and passions are stamped out by impossible expectations. To cope, Leah creates a fake identity, attempting to appease her father and husband. Already suffering from the effects of family drama, including sibling rivalry, favoritism fueled by colorism, and a lack of maternal bonding, Leah finally loses all restraint when her heart shatters into millions of pieces from the chaos of betrayal, legalism, and hypocrisy. Leah plummets onto a search for completion outside of the walls of the traditional church, where she gets caught up in metaphysics, transcendental meditation, mind science, gender confusion, and more.

Will Leah find her true identity and healing during this adventure without her traditional Bible study notes?

Kyle Jackson is the new Pastor of Shady Hill, and has his own battles to fight. Climbing out of the dangerous gutter of his past life and landing in the safety of the Westchester family ministry has given him a great new start… but will his skeletons come out to haunt him and disrupt his already-broken marriage and ministry?

“Leah”, whose name means “weary” takes the term “level up” to new heights as she attempts to define true worship, spirituality, and love while overcoming the family drama that threatens to steal her soul in the name of the church.

Slow listen

Omg i don’t think it was the story itself I think it was the voice reading the story it was full flat no excitement no nothing to keep you interested a book that should have taken 1 or 2 days to listen took me over a week 🙄 I just had to finish it I hate starting something and not finish but yeah boring boring boring listening

Church politics!

I enjoyed reading this fiction book. If you have been raised in any southern Christian home then this book will deeply resonate with you. It was a great story but the voice was average at best,

Wow

At the end of left you wondering who, what, when and how? Now I must find part 2 to continue the drama of 'Church Life'

Idk

the voice made this a horrible experience they should redo this immediately because I think the story deserves to be heard and an actual reader instead of the AI
