Peaceful feelings can be deceptive. Besides, having peace is never mentioned in the Bible as a way of determining God’s will. For that, we must consult God’s Word – which is clear about this matter.

Lou Priolo

Lou Priolo (1954–2023) war ein US-amerikanischer evangelikaler Seelsorger, Dozent und Autor, der in Gemeinden und Schulungsorganisationen tätig war. Er wurde vor allem durch praxisorientierte Ratgeber zu Ehe, Erziehung und Konfliktbewältigung bekannt, in denen er die alleinige Suffizienz der Bibel betonte und säkulare Psychologie ablehnte. Heutigen Bibellesern bietet er strukturierte Anleitungen zur biblischen Lebensführung, steht jedoch wegen seiner restriktiven Haltung zu Scheidung und des Ausschlusses psychologischer Erkenntnisse in der Kritik.
