Dancing with the Devil
A Journey from the Pulpit to the Bench
Christopher Geraghty
At the age of nearly forty, Christopher Geraghty stopped dancing with the Devil and invited another partner out onto the dance floor. A Catholic priest for nearly fifteen years, Geraghty endured bullying and persecution. This, coupled with a desire for intimacy and belonging, eventually caused Geraghty to turn his back on the priesthood for a chance at love and a family. During the ensuing thirty five years, while learning to dance to a different beat, Geraghty studied law and, for the last 16 years of his professional life, worked as a judge in Sydney. This is a story that is at times painful, sometimes funny, and at times, embarrassing and surprisingly honest. By luck and the grace of God, his story has a happy ending.
