This project examines sexual failure among spiritual leaders in order to provide resources for seminars and workshops among clergy and church professionals. After considering biblical teaching on human sexuality, marriage, and family from an evangelical perspective, the project studies the morality of spiritual leaders in ancient Israel and the apostolic church. In order to understand why contemporary spiritual leaders succumb to sexual temptation, the project investigates the character of contemporary society, the contributions of contemporary psychology, and the marriages of these leaders, drawing on surveys of contemporary marriage and family life conducted by Christianity Today Institute (1992), Evangelical Fellowship of Canada (1994), and the project survey of pastors in the United Baptist Convention of the Atlantic Provinces (1995). Psychological insights also inform an effort to determine why some women become victims of sexual misbehavior by spiritual leaders. A new commitment to professional ethics is needed to prevent sexual failure among spiritual leaders.
