 This SHOULD reach email subscribers since it seems that Feedburner has postponed its elimination of that service until August. The task of migrating my subscribers to the new site is proving impossible. I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to sign up again to subscribe to The Scrupe Blog at the new site, https://thescrupeblog.wordpress.com. I apologize for this, but the technical stuff involved in the transfer is just beyond what I can do at this point. Thanks ..read more

Since Google has decided to complicate matters by getting rid of the email subscription option through Feedburner, and since I'm more interested in providing content than messing with HTML and web stuff, I've decided that my best option is to move this blog to WordPress. As of July 1, the address of this blog will be thescrupeblog.wordpress.com. Basically, since most of the subscribers subscribe by email, this seems the best way to continue making that option available. I've downloaded the subscribers, and I think I'll be able to import the list to WordPress. But there's a learning curve ov ..read more

You know that fear that torments you? That obsession you can't get rid of? That guilt- actual or, just as likely for us scrupers, imaginary- that gnaws at you in the night? It was part of what Jesus took to the cross with Him. He engaged there in life-and-death combat. Christ is risen- and it lost.  He won. You won. And no struggle, no sin, no guilt-real or imagined- can ever separate you from Him if you simply hang on to Easter. He is hanging onto you- and He won't let you go ..read more

It doesn't depend on you. It depends on whether God tells the truth.

  October 31 is Reformation Day, the anniversary of the date that Martin Luther posted his 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenburg. Luther was one of the many great Christians of history who suffered from scrupulosity. The answer he found- the answer Christians all over the world celebrate today- was that "the just shall live by faith;" that the Son of God became a human being to bear on His scourged back the burden of all our sins, all our guilt, and all our worries, and to reach out with nail-pierced hands to remove every obstacle that separates us from God. He or sh ..read more

Scrupe Group moving update

  As of December 15 and the closing of Yahoo Groups, the Scrupe Group will be moving to Google Groups. A Google account will be necessary to join, although it won't be necessary to use Gmail. If you would like to join, use the form on the right side of the page to let me know and I'll send you an invitation or add you manually. The move is quite a hassle, but I'm confident that things are going to work out and we'll be able to continue operation for this email support group for scrupulosity and religious OCD sufferers without any interruption. We'd be glad to have you join us ..read more

The Scrupe Group has to move!

  I just got word that Yahoo Groups is closing down completely on December 15! The Scrupe Group will continue operation, but we will have to move. We've been at Yahoo for twenty years. Before that, we were at Delphi Forums and had our own message board for a while. We're still in the process of polling group members and deciding what to do next, where we'll be located, and even what form we'll take. Google Groups and Facebook Groups are two options; going back to Delphi or setting up a forum or listserv on another service are also possible alternatives. This blog will remain here for ..read more

One of our members came across a webpage that encouraged people to worry about their motivation in repenting and suggested that only contrition (sorrow over having offended God motivated by love of Him) and not attrition (regret motivated by fear of punishment) is "good enough."  Ach! Where do I begin?!   For one thing, that position makes a disastrously false assumption about the role of repentance that completely destroys the Gospel. Unfortunately, I suspect that it's one which most American and Canadian and British and ANZAC Christians share: the notion that we somehow me ..read more
