Four out of the 10 most popular posts address moral temptation and how to avoid adulterous relationships. Statistics and surveys reveal that high numbers of women struggle with moral temptation including pornography and online inappropriate relationships. High numbers of women who say they are committed to living a godly life succumb to the strong tempation to rationalize dangerous friendships outside their marriages as God-ordained ("This man is so kind and encourages me in my faith. He trusts me with his inner struggles and he's wrestling with his faith....he's searching for spiritual answers....I'm leading him to Jesus.....I can't turn my back on him..."). If the statistics are true, and I believe they are, women in the pews are no different than any other women. We can't pretend Christian women are immune from moral temptation. We must offer help and hope to women who are using inappropriate means to meet appropriate needs and desires. The enemy's MO hasn't changed. "Surely God wants you happy, doesn't He?" If you're teetering on that slippery slope, I'm yelling, "STOP! Turn around! You're heading for disaster." I mention a new resource at the end of this older post, Adultery, Forgiveness and Redemption. It's available for free online.
