Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...) Content Advisory: This episode addresses abuse, church leadership failures, and the biblical responsibilities of forgiveness, repentance, and accountability. Listener discretion is advised, particularly for younger audiences. In this episode, we tackle one of the most challenging issues in the Christian life: What does God require from the offended—and what does He require from the offender? • Forgiveness is commanded. • Repentance is a choice. • Restoration is never automatic. We break down the biblical difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, why accountability is an act of love, and how the Church is called to protect the vulnerable rather than reputations or revenue. We also dive into pastoral responsibility, the weight of shepherding people made in God’s image, and why spiritual authority is never a license to avoid correction. This conversation is direct, challenging, and deeply necessary for anyone navigating brokenness, church conflict, or questions about Christian ethics. If you’ve ever wondered: • Does forgiving someone mean trusting them again? • Can repentance exist without consequences? • How should the Church respond when leaders fail? This episode provides biblical insight and practical guidance. Scripture discussed: Matthew 18, Luke 17, Galatians 6, James 3, 1 Timothy 3, Titus 1, and others related to forgiveness, discipline, accountability, and spiritual leadership.
