Who Sacred, Not Sinful Is For
This section answers the question “Who is this really for” and the FAQs that go with it. Whether you are a student, an alum, a pastor, or a parent, you will see yourself in these questions and find language, scripture, and tools to walk through the BGLO debate with clarity and peace.
Students: I am online or newly made. Is this book going to tell me I have to denounce my letters
A: No. Sacred, Not Sinful will not bully you into a decision. It helps you slow down, open scripture, and ask better questions so you can follow Jesus with a clear conscience, not fear.
Q2: I feel caught between my chapter and my church. Will this actually help me talk to my pastor
A: Yes. The book gives you language, scriptures, and questions you can take into real conversations with pastors, mentors, and prophytes. You do not have to show up angry or ashamed. You can show up prepared.
Q3: What if my friends and line sisters or line brothers do not agree with me
A: You cannot control how others respond, but you can control how you think, pray, and speak. Sacred, Not Sinful helps you respect your friendships while keeping Christ first, so you are not pressured into silence or spiritual guilt.
Alumni: I crossed years ago and still love my letters. Is this only for college students
A: No. Alumni are a huge part of this book. Many of the stories and reflections are written for people who are balancing family, career, and lifelong Greek identity while still wanting to honor Jesus.
Q2: I have heard many denouncing testimonies online. Will this book shame me for staying active
A: This book is not a hit piece on BGLOs, and it is not a blind defense either. It invites you to look at rituals, oaths, and culture through scripture, then decide your next steps with wisdom, not internet pressure.
Q3: Can this help me lead in my chapter or alumni association without hiding my faith
A: Yes. Sacred, Not Sinful offers frameworks to help you serve, lead, and mentor with integrity. It enables you to see where to draw lines, where to be light, and how to honor Christ in spaces that may not always understand your convictions.
Pastors & Parents: I am a pastor or parent and feel alarmed by what I hear about BGLOs. Is this book for me, too
A: Absolutely. Sacred, Not Sinful gives you context, history, and scripture so you can move from fear and rumor to informed shepherding. You will learn how to ask better questions and listen without shutting your loved one down.
Q2: Will this help me talk to my child or church member without starting a fight
A: Yes. You will find conversation starters, cautions, and sample questions that open doors rather than slam them shut. The goal is not to win an argument. The goal is to walk together toward Christ with honesty and respect.
Q3: What if I am already convinced BGLOs are sinful? Is there still any value for me here
A: Even if you hold a strong conviction, this book will help you understand why your members or children stay, what they experience inside their organizations, and how to guide them with truth and compassion instead of shame or fear-based slogans.
