I know, Hannah. I saw that.
I was going to respond but thought I better hold off since I am probably way over my limit.
I have only recently become aware that Piper is part of SGM (Soveriegn Grace Ministries) (Correct me if I’m wrong, anybody). And there are several support sites for those who have been chewed up and spit out by SGM.
People like Nick who are in good standing with SGM have no clue the damage that is being done. He wants to hold onto the simplistic quick-fixes that SGM have for family issues, claiming that since it is in The Word of God, it must work. They don’t like it when people point out that the flaws of such a mindset. They pretty much freak when you threaten the delicate (and false) balance of their view of God, men, women, the universe, and everything.
So my posts are written with SGMsurvivours in mind, rather than people like Nick.
Thanks, Hannah for hosting that converstation and pointing out the folly of men like Piper.
And thanks Savannah and A. Amos Love for taking part in it.
I’m sure it helped some of those precious, wounded lurkers who were too timid to post but still hold onto the hope that God sees them and wants to heal them.
