I’m a for­mer South­ern Bap­tist pas­tor who fell from grace by com­mit­ting adultery.

I hope by chron­i­cling my story in a trans­par­ent man­ner, I can help other fallen pas­tors and hurt churches.

If you are a fallen pas­tor, or con­sid­er­ing adul­tery, please con­tact me. You can email me or leave a com­ment in a blog post. I won’t pub­lish the post. Just leave your email in the post and I’ll con­tact you as quickly as I can. I would love to talk to you. I will keep your infor­ma­tion pri­vate. I’m here to help and under­stand where you are.

I am a cer­ti­fied ath­letic trainer by trade and an author as well. I con­tributed an essay to “The Prac­tice of Love: Real Sto­ries of Liv­ing Into the King­dom of God,” under my pseu­do­nym Arthur Dimmes­dale. I am author of, “Fallen Pas­tor: Find­ing Restora­tion in a Bro­ken World.”

I cur­rently work as a sports med­i­cine pro­fes­sional at Muh­len­berg County High School in Greenville, Ken­tucky. I have two beau­ti­ful daugh­ters and one amaz­ing step-​daughter.

I am mar­ried to the most amaz­ing woman, soul­mate and best friend, Alli­son. She is my inspi­ra­tion for all that I do. She is a con­stant source of sup­port for me. She also blogs at www​.fal​l​en​pas​tor​swife​.com.

My for­mer wife and I have a solid rela­tion­ship. I hope and pray that she has a com­pletely filled life with great joy.

Abi­gail is my teenager, witty, smart and lots of fun and I love her dearly. She is an amaz­ing young woman and piano player. Katie is a great young woman as well. She has a per­son­al­ity very sim­i­lar to my late mother’s. She smiles like her, has energy like her, and makes inap­pro­pri­ate jokes like her. I have my hands full with her. She is a jewel. Leslie is my step-​daughter. She doesn’t know when to stop talk­ing. But when she does, she is like a beau­ti­ful and com­plex paint­ing. She is an amaz­ing child. The biggest regret I have in my life is that is she is not mine.

I’m a former Southern Baptist pastor who fell from grace by committing adultery.
