| Balancing the Billy Graham Rule | It is well known that from the earliest days of their ministry together, Billy Graham and his team made a rule not to be alone with a woman to whom they were not married—for example, in a car or in a restaurant. This rule was both to maintain their purity and their reputation. Just as in our day, they were aware of many Christian leaders whose ministry had been ruined through falling … | 2023/09/29 | accountability, adultery, counseling, feminism, friendship, holiness, men/husbands, pastoral ministry, purity, repentance, sexual immorality, sexual purity, temptation, wisdom, women/wives | 2023-09-29 09:00:00 |
| New Book: The Abuse Pendulum | In the early days of my biblical counseling experience (nearly 40 years ago) concern for protecting marriage sometimes kept us from doing enough to protect spouses (usually women) who were being oppressed. I firmly believe that abuse remains a significant problem, even among professing Christians, and that churches and counselors need to prioritize safety of victims of abuse. I also am concerned that in some cases the pendulum has swung too far … | 2023/09/09 | abuse, marriage, men/husbands, women/wives | 2023-09-09 09:00:00 |
| Who Is Competent to Counsel? | We Are All Called to Be Counselors Jay Adams launched the modern biblical counseling movement by quoting Romans 15:14, which states, “I myself am satisfied about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge and able to instruct one another.” He reminds us that this was written not only to the leaders in the Roman church, but to every believer.

| Hebrews 11 and Cancel Culture | We all have become familiar with cancel culture in the media, entertainment, and academia. People who take unpopular positions are banished from social media and school campuses. Speakers who are deemed to be on the wrong side are shouted down. Heroes from the past are not spared as their statues are torn down and their names removed from buildings named in their honor because of things they said or did decades or … | 2023/04/14 | charity, culture, faith, faithfulness, forgiveness, grace, history, imperfect, judgment, judgmental, justice, kindness, mercy, moralism, offices, patience, perfectionism, piety, repentance, sin, truth, wisdom | 2023-04-14 09:00:00 |
| The Abuse Pendulum, Part 4: Can Sexual Consent take Place when there is a Power Differential? (Revised) | Introduction – Shameful abuses of power There have been many highly publicized cases of powerful people (usually men) who have pressured subordinates into inappropriate sexual relationships.

| Balanced Preaching: A Four-Legged Stool as a Model | I am pleased to share my latest journal article, published in the Southeastern Seminary’s journal, the Southeastern Theological Review. Abstract: While consecutive expository preaching has become the norm in many conservative churches, different preachers have different emphases. Some focus upon detailed expositions of the text so that their sermons sound like running commentaries. Other preachers emphasize certain favorite theologicalthemes. Some rush straight into application, with little explanation of the text.

| Interacting on Social Media with Those with Whom We Differ | Many are troubled by the destructive ways people interact on social media. And the issue isn’t merely non-Christians fighting with each other over politics. Many professing Christians have contributed to this sad situation. While most of us admit that there is a significant problem with the discourse on social media, few of us think of ourselves as being a major part of the problem.

| The Abuse Pendulum, Part Three: Weaponizing Scripture and Weaponizing Victimhood (Eph. 6:17) | A few years ago, I wrote two blogs expressing concern that biblical counselors need to approach the very sensitive and important issue of abuse in a scripturally balanced way. You can find Part One here and Part Two here. I began the previous blogs with an acknowledgment that the church and biblical counselors have often failed victims of abuse by not listening well and failing to protect them from harm.

| Why Do Some Children Become Prodigals? | Parents of prodigals spend many agonizing hours asking themselves, “Why did my child rebel? Is it because I was a bad parent? Is it because my child got in with the wrong crowd?” Sometimes we may even ask God, “Why don’t you do something to bring my child back?” The problem of wayward children is not a new one.

| A Health Crisis, a Financial Crisis, and a Spiritual Crisis | For the past several months, the attention of the world has been focused upon the health crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic, in which tens of millions of people have been infected and hundreds of thousands have died. We pray that our political leaders will govern wisely and that doctors and scientists will be able to successfully stop the spread of this deadly disease.

| A Phased Reopening of a Formerly Abusive Marriage | During the COVID crisis, restrictions have been put in place which have sometimes kept people apart for the purpose of safety. For counseling cases in which there has been marital abuse the victim often must be separated from the abuser for the sake of safety. During this time, we counsel the abuser separate from the victim as we seek to lead him to faithful biblical repentance (2 Cor. 7:10-11).

| The Battleship of Abuse | Do you remember playing the game Battleship when you were a kid? You would try to discover where your opponent had stationed his ships on a grid representing the ocean so you could shoot and sink them. One shot, however, wouldn’t sink a battleship.

| 3 Lessons from David’s Fall and Forgiveness | As we face our sin, we have to navigate between two unbiblical ditches. One is despairing that our sin is beyond forgiveness. The other is carelessly thinking we can violate God’s commands without experiencing painful repercussions. The fall of David in 2 Samuel 11 is one of the saddest accounts in all of Scripture. Yet it also has great value as it offers us hope about the greatness of God’s forgiving grace—while … | 2020/09/17 | bible, consequence, forgiveness, grace, old testament, repentance, sin, theology, typology | 2020-09-17 09:00:15 |

| Talk to Me, Don’t Text Me | I once heard Sam Crabtree, who wrote one of my favorite books “Practicing Affirmation”, say that he had thought of writing a follow-up volume about “Practicing Correction”.

Dr. Jeremy Pierre of Southern Seminary does an amazing job of portraying the subtle but coercive ways of the abuser.

| Educating Your Elders About Abuse | Well-meaning church leaders often fail to distinguish between ordinary marital conflict and situations in which one spouse is abusing the other. The abusive spouse, usually the husband, is often able to manipulate inexperienced counselors by deflecting attention from his sin and focusing upon the sin of the mistreated spouse. Over time, as the oppression continues unabated, the mistreated spouse reaches the conclusion that the counseling is ineffective and that her church leaders … | 2019/10/10 | abuse, elders, harm, marriage, safety, training | 2019-10-10 09:41:25 |

| Reporting Sexual Abuse | I have been involved in several counseling cases in which a grown woman reveals that she was sexually abused in her childhood. The circumstances were never reported to the authorities, nor had they been resolved in her own life. Typically, the perpetrator was a relative. When the abuse happened, the girl reported the incident to her mother.
