MEAN GIRLS IN MINISTRY

Confronting the Competition, Exclusion, and Insecurity Hiding Behind Our "Amens"

Listen, when I tell you that there are so many women in church who are so mean they will look right at you and not speak, I am not exaggerating. I am not being dramatic. I am reporting live from the field, because I have lived it, and so have you.

We call each other sister. We post about sisterhood. We wear matching t-shirts to the women's retreat and sing songs about unity with our hands lifted high. And yet, if we are honest, so many of us have walked into the house of God and walked out feeling smaller than when we came in.

Left off the invite list. Passed over for the solo. Iced out of the group chat. Quietly, politely, "forgotten" when the party pictures went up. Smiled at on Sunday and talked about on Monday. Graded, without ever being told the rules, on a scorecard that decides who really belongs and who is just tolerated.

If any of that just made your chest tighten a little, you are exactly who this book was written for.

Mean Girls in Ministry is not a book written to tear church women down. It is a love letter to them, written by one of them, because I believe with everything in me that the church is supposed to be the safest room on earth, and too often, it has become one of the hardest. This book names what so many women have felt but never had language for, and it does it with humor, honesty, and more Scripture than a book with this title has any right to carry.

Across fifteen unforgettable chapters, we walk into the hallway where the silent treatment lives, into the choir stand where comparison competes with worship, into the group chats and committees where cliques quietly decide who matters, and into the mirror, the hardest room in the whole book, where every single one of us has to admit that we have been the mean girl too, at least once. We talk about healing without becoming hard. We talk about forgiveness without pretending it means going back to be flattened again. We talk about what happens when meanness moves online, and what it costs women to be reduced to a scorecard of marriage, motherhood, body, and past. And we end exactly where sisterhood is supposed to begin: at a table with room for one more chair.

This book made people laugh before they ever opened it. The title does that. "Mean Girls in Ministry" is the kind of phrase that gets said out loud in a church parking lot, sent in a text with three crying-laughing emojis, screenshotted and shared before anyone has read a single chapter. But what's underneath the title is something much bigger than a laugh. It is a mirror. It is a wound finally being named. It is, for a lot of women, the first time someone has put words to an experience they thought was just theirs to carry silently.

And that is exactly why I believe this book is bigger than a book.

I have had women reach out and ask me if I have ever thought about this becoming a movie, a series, a movement. And the honest answer is: I think the story is that true. Every woman who has ever been looked past in a hallway, excluded from a circle, competed against instead of celebrated, or healed enough to finally forgive, is a character in this story. This is not one woman's experience. It is thousands of women's experience, happening in churches in every city, every denomination, every generation, every single Sunday. That is the kind of story that does not stay contained to a page. It becomes a conversation, a small group, a retreat theme, a hashtag, a reunion of women finally telling the truth to each other.

That is already starting to happen. Women are reading this book together, signing the Covenant for the Table out loud in groups, taking the quiz and tagging the sister who needs to laugh at the results right alongside them, walking through the eight-week study and watching real relationships shift, sometimes in real time, in the same room.

If you have ever been the woman standing in the hallway, smile frozen, wondering what you did wrong, this book will meet you there.

If you have ever been the woman holding the clipboard, the one guarding the gate, the one who has to be honest about her own reflection, this book will meet you there too.

And if you are the woman who is tired, truly tired, of watching the next generation of girls inherit the same cliques, the same comparison, the same cold shoulders we promised ourselves we would never pass down, this book is an invitation to help end that cycle, starting now, starting with us.

God did not run out of chairs.

There is room at this table for every woman who is ready to stop competing for a seat and start making one for somebody else.

Come as you are. Pull up a chair. Let's talk.
