[quote=Anonymous]I have dealt with something similar, and honestly, the best you can do is just be present for him and whatever he's going through. A witness, if you will. Don't try to solve the problem for him unless he asks for specific solutions. I spent a long time mistaking my husband's need for comfort as a need for help, and I think that ultimately that was more frustrating to both of us. It sounds like you guys have a plan of sorts for dealing with the practicalities of the situation, but as far as the emotional side, the community side, etc., that will be harder. I don't understand how it works in churches - are you leaving the congregation? It sounds like yes, since he was fired. What was he fired for? Are there other ministry options for him locally that he could pursue aggressively now and then when June comes along, it could be framed as him moving in a different direction, rather than "getting fired"?[/quote]
