My wife is teaching at a Christian school. They hired her and she was ordained by them as a minister and filled out whatever IRS form was necessary and they pay her her salary with no taxes or withholdings taken out.
Is this going to be a problem for us regarding our taxes? The Christian School is affiliated with a church and I believe it is the church that her paycheck comes from.
Thanks for any help.

From the information given she would not qualify for a clergy housing allowance. She would need to do estimated income taxes that should include Self-employment taxes and pay them quarterly.
