The author says he has known quite a few Pastors who were sexual predators....doesn't specifically say they were IFB..... 

At any rate, the article points out a problem sadly all too common among 'clergy' and offers some practical suggestions.

I know this is serious but #1Do not use cologne made me chuckle. That is a sure fire way to never be at risk with my wife. Her allergies would keep her at bay even if you were often mistaken for Fabio.

He's such a legalist.

I thought that odd myself.....that never worked for me when I used English Leather as a teenager....

The suggestions in the OP's article are somewhat common sense...but a true sexual predator would know that, but it wouldn't matter.

These suggestions might protect a Pastor from unnecessary temptation....

The trick is old spice.....  Girls dig guys that smell like dad.

I am not a pastor but I am tempted to ditch all of my Hai Karate.

Old Spice???? 

My dad wore Aqua Velva. 

My husband does not.

Aqua Velva!  That's the cologne I couldn't remember the name of.  My poor Dad.  He got either Aqua Velva, Old Spice or English Leather from his two kids for Father's Day for more years than he probably cared to remember, God rest his soul.

Taking advantage of someone who is vulnerable and hurting so much they are requesting your help, well that's not normal, period. If this is even a fear, Id say get out of ministry.

I leave the door open. That's about it. But if topics get too...then they can see someone of their own gender.
One of the Pastors Wives. Maybe we could pray for Mark Driscoll

In the 70's, alot of ladies here wore Aqua Net
