Theology That Bites Back
Whenever something happens that seems impervious to plain reason speaking with an open Bible, one starts to look around for an explanation. How is it possible for something like this to happen? The PCA is supposed to be one of the stalwart evangelical denominations, and we all looked away for a minute and then blammo. …
“Eating stolen goods that I watched get stolen is morally problematic, and I cheerfully grant it. But I am here talking about my supposed complicity in the strange oaths that the foreman in the Texas orchard swore at his underpaid migrant workers, in the season before those pecans from said orchard made their way through …
Revoice: Keep hammering away on the Revoice Conference. You are one of the few that are publicly opposing it. Please keep doing so. Michael Michael, thanks and will do.
