Well, it is done. Resignation letter has been sent. Feels a little weird right now but I am hoping it will help me handle the upcoming ordeal with a little more equanimity. My wife is handling it better than I expected, at least externally. I’m sure she’ll feel the loss in her own way. Bizarrely enough the first thing she said was now that I didn’t have any “skin in the game” that I just needed to leave the whole church thing alone. This organization really does a good job getting inside of people’s heads! Actually I would like nothing more but I’m sure it will keep encroaching in my life in ways that will cause me some grief. But for now at least I have some comfort in knowing that my name is no longer associated with an organization that treats families so poorly.
Congrats and condolences! What a lifetime of church chutzpah!
May you find peace and love in your family.
