When I was in 8th grade and I was reading Greek mythology, it dawned on me how much of the supernatural interactions between the deity of the bible and mankind sounded like ancient mythology. That seed of doubt never went away

At a very superficial level, parts, maybe. But not in any depth.

marriage workshops, counseling, bible reading together, date nights every week, marriage books - but my marriage never became what I was promised it would be

Books, date nights, workshops? Where are those commanded in the Bible? What about loving your wife like Christ loved His church? Did you try that?

And what were you promised it would be? You take two sinners and stick them together in the same house and you were expecting? Did you love your wife like Jesus loved us sinners anyway?

So he fostered what he thought was a lie since the 8th grade. If he had any honest in his heart he never would have become a pastor till he resolved his doubts. Instead he became a fraud and made being a fraud his livelihood. He should be required to return every penny he stole from the ministry
