I am clergy and my W-2 has housing allowance incld. Nothing in Box 14. My Long Schedule SE shows that my housing allowance has been added to my wages. Why?

My 1040 indicates that my Housing allowance (Line 21) is negative, as indicated in another post to bring my Wages down for federal taxation.  This doesn't seem to be the case for Self-employment since it looks like my housing allowance has been added to my wages.   Can you advise me on a way for my SE worksheet to reflect my actual wages?

thank you.
