When a Pastor Falls

Today, we’re pausing from our 3 episode series, “Dying, Death, and Funerals” to address another sad topic: What happens when a pastor falls into sin? What does it mean? What is the biblical way to respond? Let’s go to Scripture and find out.

 

UPDATE (March 12, 2025): Steve Lawson has posted a public statement of confession and repentance. We have linked it below near the end of the show notes.
