Gayle Haggard was living the life of her dreams. She was married to the senior pastor of a thriving megachurch, a mother of five, and a faith leader in her own right. But it all came crashing down when she — along with the rest of the nation — learned her husband was involved in a years-long sexual relationship with another man. Host Michel Martin speaks with Gayle Haggard, author of the book Why I Stayed, about her marriage, her husband’s fall from grace and his sexuality.

Almost from the day Gayle Haggard learned in early November 2006 that her famous evangelical husband, Ted Haggard, had a secret life of drug use and homosexual liaisons, she knew she would try to forgive him.
That's what Christians do, she writes in her book, "Why I Stayed: The Choices I Made in My Darkest Hour." The candid memoir, whose official release is Jan. 26, was available Tuesday at the Barnes & Noble store on Denver's 16th Street Mall.

Last month, Haggard — who declined to be interviewed — opened his home for a prayer meeting. He expected a dozen people. More than 100 came, and the Haggards moved the furniture out of the living room to make space.
A week later, he swept out his barn and rented 75 chairs. When they were filled, people stood against the back walls.
Many were former or current members of his old church who called him Pastor Ted. They said they had missed him, that he was born to preach — not to sell insurance as he had when he first returned here. They said they had forgiven what they and Haggard regarded as his sins.
