Isn't this exactly the type of pastor we all need? Someone who recognizes that as a human he is an inherent sinner and is in need of salvation? And on top of that, he's trying to work to get the kind of strong will that he needs to purge these ideas from his head? Someone who is weak wouldn't do that.

The alternative of course, would be that he chooses to act on temptation, and then makes excuses for it. It takes a strong will to fight those urges and very few people have that.

Indeed. But I still wouldn’t leave him alone with my teenage sons, lol.
