Paul wrote in 1 Cor. 9:4-6 "Do we not have the right to eat and drink? 5 Do we not have the right to take along a believing wife, as do the other apostles and the brothers of the Lord and Cephas? 6Or is it only Barnabas and I who have no right to refrain from working for a living?"
Also Mark 1:29-31 and Luke 4:38-39 speak of the "mother-in-law of Simon" being ill, Jesus goes to her house, heals her, and she serves him and the disciples indicating that Simon Peter (Cephas) was married. Very early written Church history indicates that the Apostle Peter may have even been crucified with his wife.Children are mentioned along with wives in the households of those appointed to lead the Church. According to the Apostle Paul's writings in Titus 1 and 1 Timothy 3, bishops (overseers), elders/pastors/priests (presbyteroi), and deacons were to be "husbands of one wife"and were to "manage his own household well, with all dignity keeping his children submissive" (1 Timothy 3:4) "his children are believers and not open to the charge of debauchery or insubordination" Titus 1:6.
