Code of Silence?

I have a heavy heart today as I read about a man's recent exposure around his sexual acting out issues and subsequent arrest around those issues. Not always new news to me with the honor I have to walk with men and women in this arena on a daily basis. But my heart sank when I read the article about this man and his employer and church's response to his condition and arrest. First for the man, Joe Barron, who is a pastor at a very prominent church in the Dallas TX area , who needs support and prayers as he begins a further journey of brokenness. But secondly in response to his employer's response to the debacle. The senior pastor of the church, Rev. Jack Graham, stated according to the article, "The pastor said he was eager to move on. 'We want to put this in the rearview mirror,' Graham said." Wait a minute, this is more about an opportunity rather than just putting this "in the rearview mirror". In a church the size of this one, around 26,000 people, there are many who are struggling with similar conditions or sin much like this pastor. This has been one of the toughest, heart wrenching things I see in this area of sexual misunderstanding - the propensity to stuff it or have a code of silence on the issue that so many struggle with in secret. My heart hopes that this church and staff and others like it may use this as a grace opportunity for growth and understanding brokenness in new ways rather than just stuffing it in the closet again. What do you think? Is it an opportunity or should they just move forward? Peace...
