How Do We Move Forward When Pastors Commit Sexual Abuse?

Christian talk radio with Pastor Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier

In this episode, Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer questions from callers. The first caller asked how to repair a relationship when the other person won't tell them what they did wrong. The hosts suggested that the caller should try to communicate their feelings and ask for forgiveness, even if they don't know what they did wrong. The second caller asked if the Bible requires them to be married before they can be an elder. The hosts said that the Bible does not require this, but it does require elders to be above reproach. The third caller asked if leadership must disclose a pastor's past sexual abuse to the church. The hosts said that it depends on the situation, but it is important to be transparent and honest with the church. The fourth caller asked what 1 Corinthians 7 teaches about marriage to an unbeliever. The hosts said that it is not ideal, but it is not forbidden. The fifth caller asked if the wedding in Cana was John's wedding. The hosts said that it was not John's wedding, but rather Jesus' first miracle.
