Hebrews 13:17: What to Do When Pastors Weaponize Scripture To Say You Must Obey Them

Hebrews 13:17: What to Do When Pastors Weaponize Scripture To Say You Must Obey Them

by Sheila Wray Gregoire | Feb 11, 2026 | Abuse, Theology of Marriage and Sex

How did we get to the point where Scripture is so easily weaponized? Thank you to Zondervan for sponsoring this post. I mean, I suppose it always has been. That’s one of the things Jesus railed against the religious leaders for, and that the prophets railed...

Why the Doctrine of Submission Has Made Women Treat Marriage Like an Idol

Have you ever noticed that a lot of common Christian sex advice just sounds really icky?

Sex is supposed to be great. Like, really great. So great that it’s hard to keep your hands off each other great. 

So why do so many Christian marriage books present it as another chore to check off of a woman’s to-do list? 

Why do so many Christian sex books portray men as doomed to sexual deviancy? 

We’re on a mission to change the conversation about sex in evangelical spaces. And to do that, we started by scoring our current best-sellers based on a Healthy Sexuality Scorecard. 

Want to see how your favourite book scored? 

You can download the rubric and scorecard (including quotes that explain the score) here, for free!
