Today’s topic: Cheating Pastor Dear Steve, My husband moved in with and left his family for a parishioner in his congregation. We had just renewed our wedding vows after over 20 some years of marriage. He said he has found the woman of his dreams. He left being a pastor for several years and said he did not love me anymore. He said that he still has a family because he can call our four children. At a recent party for one of our children, he brought a card and a gift from his lover. It upset my kids so much and I demanded that he take it back. My children and I did not keep it. I am left with a house, car payments, bills, tuition payments, a job that is now on furlough, and I am without a church home because my husband was always a pastor. I am not very worldly, I married my husband while I was in college. This is not his first affair but the ninth. He has left me before several times and even married someone while we were still married.
