I find myself resonating with many of his observations and desiring to see more of this ideas in action among black christians. Nevertheless, some of his writing also challenges my sensibilities and I know it would be too much for many. But I find myself fascinated with his passion and attentive to his thoughts.

Reformed theology, expositional preaching, membership (and classes), church discipline, evangelism and an amazing passion and vision for the lost, which is a challenge to all of us.<BR/><BR/>My grandmother was a reformed Christian (God brought me to the reformed truths at 19), and my experience of reformed churches when I was young, was very serious older men in suits, politically right wing, with big books, in monocultural churches, which were very disengaged from the world. To those who have this experience, Driscoll is a breath of fresh air. He also takes the truths we love to people who we would not normally have contact with and into the wider church (which again thanks to yourself and others like Mark Dever), is thank God, happening more and more.<BR/><BR/>However the way he talks sometimes (and I work in prisons ), does make me cringe. I just hope this doesn't give some of our reformed brothers and sisters an excuse not to listen. Particularly those who would benefit from the challenge of his love for the lost.<BR/><BR/>ColinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
