The minister, as any other man, becomes vulnerable to sexual temptation when he, as well as his wife, is rebounding from a serious misunderstanding or a period of sexual maladjustment. He becomes an easy target for an enterprising woman who can take the role of pursuer before he is fully aware of the problem. How critical it is to “keep the home fires burning”! Any couple enjoying a loving, warm relationship has a primary defense against the temptation, for either spouse, to fall into sexual sin or even to engage in unethical behavior outside the marriage.
