Brick Lane Community Church Joins The Gospel Coalition, and Challenging a Misleading Statement from Steve Estes Church

Brick Lane Community Church has exited the EFCA. Its statement in the local Elverson, Pennsylvania press was deceitful. It stated that they had to vote to separate from the EFCA and then align with the The Gospel Coalition. This post at The Wondering Eagle pushes back against that corrupt statement. After all in Eddie Cole’s Eastern District there are 15 EFCA churches involved in The Gospel Coalition. Plus it was learned that the most prolific pastors are Bill Kynes and Benjamin Vrbicek. The Wondering Eagle would like to ask, can Merle and Dave Stoltzfus and Steve Estes be honest? 

An Open Letter to Jeff Loven (The Bridge Fresno Pastor on Bryan Loritts Scheduled to Speak on July 8, 2018)

An open letter to Jeff Loven of The Bridge Fresno. Jeff is the creative arts pastor at The Bridge. Today’s open letter is a follow up to my question I posed yesterday. Why is Bryan Loritts scheduled to speak at The Bridge Fresno. I hope The Bridge Fresno will do the right thing and cancel Bryan and tell him that he needs to repent and go back to Memphis and own what he has allegedly done.

Does Mark Mullery’s Redeeming Grace Church Fairfax Confirm What the Chinese Communist Party Says About Religion Contributing to Corruption?

In August of 2017 a Chinese exchange student at George Mason University involved in Mark Mullery’s Redeeming Grace Church Fairfax shared his testimony at church on a Sunday morning. The church uploaded it to You Tube. This post looks at the crackdown on corruption in China, which is attributed to religion according to the Chinese’s People’s Daily and asks a question. Is a church that is being dogged by allegations of child sex abuse cover up validating what the Chinese government states about corruption coming from religion? 

From Mark Driscoll’s Mars Hill, to C.J. Mahaney’s Sovereign Grace to Jordan Kauflin’s Redeemer Arlington and an Air Force Captain I Knew, A Question that Must be Posed. Are Neo-Calvinists Modern Day Jonah’s in that All They Do is Flee?

There is one aspect to Neo-Calvinists that I have noticed. You can see this in the behavior of Mark Driscoll, C.J. Mahaney and an Air Force Captain from Jordan Kauflin’s Redeemer Arlington. All of them fled when they should have worked out their problems. All of them fled while believing in Biblical Manhood and in church discipline. All they left in their wake was pain, trauma and fractured lives. For the Neo-Calvinist this is also “sound doctrine.”
