I understand his wife being upset, or in your words, wants to murder him. However, there is always two sides to a story.

What if we find out his wife didn’t give him due benevolence, so he turned to someone else for affection? Or we may never find out. Not saying this is a correct response to begin rejected by your spouse.

Was Chris Reed just so consumed with an unchecked desire for lust that he picked this women out, and began to seek her as a predator. All we’re hearing is surface issues right now, the core of the problem isn’t even come out yet. In my experience, whatever they say first, 9/10 times isn’t the real problem. His problems began at home!!!

Hopefully he’ll learn that “loose lips sink ships”, and he’ll seek apostolic counseling with his wife involved.

Are you saying it's his wife's fault he sought another woman?

I was just going to ask, “so, you’re blaming his wife?”

and why hasn’t anyone brought up power dynamics? As these guys are considered to be men with authority from God.

I understood what you meant.

You could of said she should pack up her 6 children, and leave him? Sue him for divorce, have him pay child support, and alimony? Which I believe is far worse than getting smashed in the cranium with a cast iron skillet, which would be the more merciful option. Especially with 6 children.

This is what blows my mind.

But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.

As far as "due benevolence," Missy is in her 30's with six kids.

Is it just me? Or is he looking more and more like "The Master" from Dr Who?
