What if the Child Molester is Repentant?



Even among pastors and other church leaders, there is a diversity of views about what repentance and restoration mean. Within a congregation, there are a wide range of theological and a life understandings about these concepts. The pastor and congregation may not agree about how to relate to sexual offenders who seek restoration or membership. You must recognize that repentance is not merely being sorry for one’s sins. I have seen many individuals who were sorry for the wrong they have done, but there was no godly sorrow. Page 17
