A Giveaway

One of my favorite blogs is challies.com. One of his taglines has been "putting the fun in fundamentalism." I like his blog for the articles he writes, but I am particularly fond of his "a la carte" section where he links to 4 or 5 news items every day. I learn a lot about what is going on in the Christian blogosphere (and other parts of the blogosphere) through him.

Another reason to like this site is the giveaways that he sometimes does. This month it is a giveaway from Monergism Books. Click here to sign up for the giveaway and be sure to use my referral ID of 70394.

A Little More Peaceful

The blogosphere is a bit more peaceful today. One of my least-favorite evangelical sites has been shut down. I actually do feel somewhat badly for the author because I know that she was doing what she really believed was the right thing. She thought it was her God-given duty to call out every problem that she perceived in the evangelical church today. She is a heretic-hunter par excellence.

I just don't know how much that site really helped anything. Were any Purpose-Driven churches changed because of her articles? Has Benny Hinn decided to shut down his operations? More importantly, how many people have been steered clear of any perceived problems? I guess if a few have then it was worth it.

She wrote in her farewell article that it hurt her to have someone write that "finding a good article on that site was like finding a nickel in a spittoon". As she so clearly demonstrated, Christian fellowship and love does not mean agreement. Apparently she is the only one allowed to vent her spleen.
