Perhaps what is being missed in this thread is that deceit and/or lying is a sin and the Devil is the Father of all lies. In this case, the husband is sorely in need of taking responsibility for these sins and part of that requires that he begins the repentance process. While I agree with those who believe he may need professional help, this also needs to be brought to the Bishops attention for further handling and help. I suspect there might be more things going on than just a job loss.

Remember, we simply do not know if he is a member of the Church. So which Bishop are referring too? LOL

Hemi - True, we don't know and I was assuming that. But I stand by my counsel. If he/they aren't members, then they still should seek outside help to work thru the issues. IMHO

Sweetie, I did fall over as you said I would.... I'm so sorry to hear about this. I knew something was very wrong, somethings didn't shock me, but I am surprised about this "job" we all had such high hopes for the two of you. Just know that you will always be close to my heart babe.
One step at a time...... one step at a time..... and you have friends. And so does your husband, if ever he looks for any, hopefully he'll know where to find them.

Oh, for others info.... they are members.

Don't be quick to judge him as deceitful and a bad person. Depression makes people do crazy things. I know from experience that it plays havoc with the way you think and act, for me rest came in admitting everything was not alright, That needed to admit to my wife how I felt, what I was struggling with inside me.
the reasons I lied and hid things from her was because I wanted to protect her from our problems, I wanted her to have everything she wanted, and didn't want to burden her with how things were at the time. I didn't want her to worry, so I took it all on myself.
By finally opening up and by releasing a whole lot of pent up issues, I was able to start back to getting right. While my case wasn't extreme, when you are in that place you need help, love and support and understanding to help pull you through to the otherside.
