In Luke 18:18-30 we have the story a rich ruler who came to Jesus asking what he must do to deserve eternal life. The story brings up a number of issues. One is whether we wish to relate to God from a set of rules/ list (which, we learn in the story, is not what Jesus longs for from us) or from the heart. Jesus has an uncanny way to reveal what is really going on in us and cut through our pretenses.
Jason – It is really great that you would open up an be so vulnerable to allow people to ask anything that is on their mind.

Since pastors are in fact human, should there be any reason why the church would not just forgive and forget. Without mentioning names of course, could you provide some current examples?
