Come to think of it, similar issues are why I stayed in my first marriage for 5 years. The church told me I was supposed to. "God hates divorce," "Wives submit to your husbands," and all that. Not to mention, children need BOTH parents. [sarcasm] Being raised by a single parent is the worst thing that can happen. [/sarcasm] They knew what he was doing, but I was supposed to just pray about it and wait for God to change him.

Instead of God changing him, I changed churches. Thirty years later, he remains an active alcoholic and drug addict, and would continue to abuse me if he were still a part of my life.
