I knew my personal judgment was very likely clouded by bad experiences suffered and wounds received.
So because I trust these men and know that they are men of integrity who love me, walk with God, and want the best for me, I choose to trust them at times when I don't have a clear Scriptural edict, or a definite Word from God for myself.
I believe this to be the best safety net I can have.

I can agree with that. And I am glad that you have those who you respect, trust and admire, and can share spiritual unity with.
