Honest Reflections — My Role in a Failed Marriage as a Priest
<p>Welcome back to <em>The Monday Memoi</em>r, where we have reached the second half of 2012.</p>
<p>We are now in the weeds of my marriage break up and its place in my ministry as a priest in the Church of England.</p>
<p>Last week, I discussed how I found out that my wife wanted to leave and set herself up in the independent life that — unbeknown to me — she had wanted for a long time.</p>
<p>Thanks for the feedback on that piece. I think I shed a few readers, but there we go — honesty and reality don’t always go over well for some people.</p>
<h2>How did it come to this?</h2>
<p>I want to use this instalment of the Monday Memoir to press a pause button on the hectic narrative we’ve followed so far and reflect on what happened in those early months of 2012.</p>
<p>Before we progress any further along the timeline, I want to be honest and not sugarcoat my mistakes.</p>
<h2>It takes two people to make a marriage.</h2>
<p>A successful, thriving, growing marriage needs two people who are both willing to put in the time and commitment to overcome obstacles and solve problems.</p>
