Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. -Mark Twain
Southern Baptist Convention
Complementarianism and the SBC
"If you live your life submitting to what you perceive as "the authority" of men, particularly the husband God has given you, then fine! Just don't dare call it biblical. Call it your cultural preference…. Don't call it biblical Christianity."
Young, Restless, and Reformed (YRR) – RIP?
“I’ve been pondering a post on this thing that’s been called Young, Restless, and Reformed. What’s good? What’s bad? What needs to be celebrated? What needs to addressed? For starters, it may be time to retire the name.”
Trouble in Mayberry: Southern Baptist Churches Leave Local Association
"As for women writing books that expound the scriptures, my view is that this is also not teaching in the way that preaching in church would be. The dynamic of speaking before a community of believers, in which everyone listening is seeing one’s authoritative demeanor and hearing one’s authoritative voice, is a different dynamic than a book. Books can be picked up and put down, read, interacted with, discussed, debated, written and written against. Sermons don’t fit into that same kind of genre entirely. But I admit this is a difficult call, and some good scholars would say that there is no difference between the two."
Andy Davis is Biblical; I’m Not
"It could be a sign of pride in your life if a word of reproof or admonition is not able to be received with the same grace, whether it be given by the poorest of saints or the most educated person." John Bunyan
FBC Durham’s Andy Davis: Electing a Woman Deacon Is “Wicked”
“What seem our worst prayers may really be, in God's eyes, our best. Those, I mean, which are least supported by devotional feeling. For these may come from a deeper level than feeling. God sometimes seems to speak to us most intimately when he catches us, as it were, off our guard.” CS Lewis
SBC Association Rejects Acts 29 Church
"We are all in the same boat in a stormy sea, and we owe each other a terrible loyalty."
