I don’t have time to adequately blog this because we need to leave- there’s a Quiznos Cabo Chicken calling my name somewhere in Richmond- but this story is so typical. So real life. So every one of us.

As I have heard a thousand people say that this was the “perfect Christian couple,” and that she was such a “godly” woman and he was such a “wonderful” minister, all I can think of is WHAT INCREDIBLE LIARS WE ALL ARE.

Sheesh. When you heard this story, and you thought of your life, you knew- men- that you can be so nit-picking and carping that, should your wife actually snap, you might be in trouble. And this guy did, and she did, and he’s gone.

But they are like a hundred people in your church and a hundred thousand within a twenty-five mile circle. Arguing about money, or sex, or feelings, or criticism, or being perfect, or why do we have to live this way.

And remember my apology to my family, my TR friends. Remember how you ridiculued the emotion in that piece when I said I was sorry for what the ministry did to my family. Of course, that’s just me. Right? That’s just “loose screws and all” iMonk. It couldn’t be anyone close to you. Of course not. Never.

Live your delusional Christian life, Knights of Orthodoxy and Perfect Lying. I want none of it.
