I kow some people who have felt burned that way.<BR/><BR/>Yes, pray for the pastor. I think too the pastor needs accountability - which not all have. It is easier to fall prey to temptation if some-one is an island without open and honest dialogue with an elder or mature believers.<BR/><BR/>Good to see you back blogging!Catezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14514176885131945814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10158261.post-1156770685264780252006-08-28T09:11:00.000-04:002006-08-28T09:11:00.000-04:00Tony Campolo talks about women in counselling situ...Tony Campolo talks about women in counselling situations being interested in him. His theory is that it's becuase he listens to them. It's certainly not because he's irresistable (visually).juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03724497030245209599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10158261.post-1156643261710406302006-08-26T21:47:00.000-04:002006-08-26T21:47:00.000-04:00I used to think that ugliness would be a good defe...I used to think that ugliness would be a good defense for me.

I also want pizza and cookies. I'll have to make a choice. <BR/><BR/>We also have to make a choice between unbridled sexuality and fidelity. I certainly hope my husband is choosing fidelity.

I know of a situation where the pastor had an affair with his secretary, and the attraction was that the pastor would sit and listen with great sympathy to her woes.<BR/><BR/>You're right about the solution, I think. We must support our pastors in prayer.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02288648996304246570noreply@blogger.com
