Quotes about Romaine
Chuck Smith said:
At Calvary Chapel, one of our pastors, Romaine, has the gift of exhortation. It's not uncommon to hear him say something like, "Okay, get off your duff and get out of here and trust the Lord. Don't come crying to me about your problems. Trust the Lord! Don't look to me for help, look to the Lord. I can't help you, but the Lord will." He has a tremendous gift of exhortation, and it's a good balance for our church. I have the gift of teaching; Romaine has the gift of exhortation. He exhorts the people to put into practice the things they've learned from the Scriptures.
Romaine's model of pastoral care came out of his Marine Drill sargent background. I think he’s following a sort of “Provocative Therapy” model of counselling. Definitely not the Rogerian model, that’s for sure.
