Founders on Dr. Malcolm Yarnell: "Dangerous to Biblical Christianity" by Peter Lumpkins

When I attempted the blogging gig a few years ago, a few blogs were the obvious Kingpins. Wade Burleson's ceaseless attacks on the IMB trustees was one of them. In the beginning, like most who read but resist comment, I just loitered around in the background, observing what churned his... Read more →

J. D. Greear's "Are You a Calvinist?": A Brief Critique by Peter Lumpkins

Interestingly, Between the Times is turning up the temperature on Calvinism's focus, with 4 for 4 of their most recent posts addressing the issue. I'm getting jealous: at that rate, pretty soon their focus promises to overshadow my own! Being a single author, I can never keep up! I appreciate... Read more →

Founders Ministries: Naive, Ignorant, or Out-of-Touch?

I just got out of the conference a few minutes ago and thought I'd do a few emails and such. What did I find? Hundreds of page views coming from Founders. I knew Founders had put up a post linking me in their latest crusade. I did not expect that... Read more →

Attending Writer's Conference

All, I'm attending a writer's conference over the next several days. Thus, unless I get some down-time, there'll be no time for blogging at all. Know I appreciate the readership at SBC Tomorrow, including those who rarely, if ever, agree with my content or style of writing I've carved out... Read more →

A Young Layman's Perspective on the Discernment Gap Among Young Southern Baptists: by Mr. Chris Poe

Precipitation caught Southern Baptists without their umbrella last week, but now slowly moves to the north.

SEBTS & Mark Driscoll: "Forget the Cussin'! Let's Talk Sex!" by Peter Lumpkins

This may be the final post I publish with hopes in making more people aware of some uncharted waters Southern Baptists are sailing as we drool over linking ourselves to the innovative ministries of controversial pastor, Mark Driscoll. I'm quite sure I'll receive the standard "Why do you hate Driscoll... Read more →

Drawing Swords Over Mark Driscoll: Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary vs. Baptist Press

In mid-January, I posted a provocative piece entitled, '"The Cussing Pastor" Continues Influence Among Southern Baptists' which drew many to this site defending Driscoll, including Tyler Jones, Lead Pastor, Vintage 21 Church, the host church for Plant & Thrive, an Acts29 boot camp. I have to say, some of the... Read more →
