Gayle Haggard's book explaining why she decided to stay with her husband, former evangelical leader Ted Haggard, after his drug and sex scandal has made the New York Times' Bestseller List.

 

Why I Stayed: The Choices I Made in My Darkest Hour, written by Haggard and Angela Hunt, is No. 35 in the hardcover nonfiction category, said Haggard's publicist Beverly Rykerd, according to Colorado Springs-based newspaper The Gazette.

The book will officially appear on the Feb. 21 list.

In the newly released memoir, Gayle chronicles the difficult choices she made following the revelation that her husband of 30 years was involved in a gay sexual relationship that included drugs.

At the time when the scandal broke out, Ted Haggard was considered one of the most influential evangelical leaders in the country. He was president of the National Association of Evangelicals and senior pastor of Colorado Springs-based New Life Church, one of the largest churches in the nation.
