Michael Pearl on the Sovereignty of God

We are working on another response to Michael Pearl, to a series of articles he wrote on the question of older children obeying their parents.

Again, as I have said before, I wish to point out how much we have appreciated much of what Michael Pearl has done. Especially in the area of child training. I also appreciate their 'Helpmeet' book, and that book entitled 'Holy Sex'. I hope and pray that these series of articles will help move the discussion on Betrothal forward in Christian Love. While I believe that Mr. Pearl has erred in his understanding of what Scripture teaches on this subject, we all owe him great appreciation for his willingness to at least look at a subject which many are avoiding.
