Yeah - I am talking about that and several other problems as well. The leaders just do not want to get their hands dirty with actually walking someone thru a difficult problem. They can recite their platitudes and keep on going.I don't know if you mean leadership approach to marital problems. More and more my nagging concern is becoming this: Too many comments about marriage that are made in the pulpits and in counseling sessions have given the false message that adultery isn't so bad that it should be looked at as something any worse than the fleshly reaction to it. At least, this is the message I've been getting. And I certainly believe this is the message cheaters (and abusers, as Hannah pointed out) are getting and as a result, smugly make themselves scrutinize the behavior of the betrayeds in the aftermath of their actions.
I just don't get it. I don't get the "so what?" attitude or the spiritual turned up nose toward mention of the problem. Example: posts 2 and 3
No one does personal discipleship any more.
