This Is Gonna Hurt - The Podcast Of J. Gordon Duncan

Today, we take up the controversy surrounding Paige Patterson’s, the President of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, comments about counseling an abused spouse to stay in her relationship. Some of the questions we answer are: What are the biblical reasons for divorce? Is physical abuse biblical cause? What are the responsibilities of the pastor? What is Gordon’ opinion?
