The First Mover Advantage
On October 1, 2009, comedian and late-night television host David Letterman began his show by telling a story about what had happened to him. He told his audience about how he was being blackmailed by someone who knew about “terrible things” Letterman had done. In his usual comedic fashion, Letterman went through the blackmailing ordeal, concluding his story by talking about how he testified in front of the Grand Jury that morning.
Then he told his audience the “terrible things” the extortionist was blackmailing him with—Letterman had slept with female staffers at the show. He admitted to his audience that he had had sex with female staffers at the show, that he would not disclose those women’s names, and that he did not intend to comment on this issue any further.
See David Letterman’s address to his audience on the blackmail scandal.

Case Study #3 – Pat is a young man just beginning his professional career in financial planning. He is an unashamed follower of Christ, has a strong network of friends, and regularly participates in the community life of his church. However, Pat struggles with a lustful thought life and an appetite for pornography. Often, he will say no to his thoughts and appetites, but when he does not, he sinks into despair. The shame and guilt of his choices are crushing and result in a new list of disciplines to protect himself. After several years in financial planning, the firm let him go for budgetary reasons. Pat feels that the Lord is punishing him for his struggles. Assuming you are Pat’s accountability partner, how would you speak the gospel into his life and struggles?
