“An even more personally disturbing policy that my church’s denomination has is that the pastors cannot meet alone with a woman unless there is a third party present. While I respect the intention of the rule, it makes meeting with the guy I work with challenging at times. He’s suggested we meet at church during the worship service so we won’t be alone.

“Barb had no desire for public ministry. My role as an evangelical pastor created untold pressure on her, and she eventually stopped attending church. She loves Jesus, but the typical church routine and mind-set made her crazy.”
