It is interesting to note that secular approaches have embraced an approach to confrontation that mirrors church discipline. It is technically called intervention. In essence it says that we can no longer wait for people to destroy themselves and others. They must be presented with the facts about their problem. They are out of touch with reality and need others to present it to them. Furthermore, this is best done by a group of people who deeply love the substance abuser. Curiously, intervention is hailed as one of the most significant advances in drug treatment. Yet church discipline is the original and intervention the imitator.

Boy....Today is the 10th....I shoulda had my food stamps by now. Guess what?
OPA (welfare) says expect up to 10 days delay because of the lack of
transportation from Georgia. Oh! and to expect this to happen until at least
January 2002. For those of you on farms, You are blessed! I did manage to
stock up on some canned goods...but fresh meat, eggs and milk are in very
short supply. Called the church..will be talking to a couple tonight about
this during our (PTL) free dinner.
