Could a Split the Best Thing for the PCA? I know this is a question that won’t get me elected moderator, but, maybe it’s one that more leaders in the PCA should be considering...
At least my doomsday post got people talking. It turns out most of you don’t want a PCA split. It also turns out that my wife’s greatest fears have come true, I’m reviled the interweb over...
Despite the many positive steps made by the staff of the Aquila Report, they seem to be walking a dangerous tight-rope between news and opinion.
As pastors, it is always difficult to balance the demands of local church ministry and thoughtful participation in our polity. When there are folks in need around us at our churches and the needs of the assembly are a far way off, it is tough to keep up. I confess…
For many people, the jury is still out on whether the internet (and particularly the blogosphere) is helping or hindering the life of the PCA.
A few weeks ago, I (Bobby) was privileged to participate in a conversation on racial issues at Mt. Helm Baptist Church in Jackson, MS for the Bradley-Rhodes Conversation. Among those who spoke were Rev. CJ Rhodes, Dr. Anthony Bradley, Dr. Ligon Duncan and Phillip Holmes of the Reformed African-American Network….
At least my doomsday post got people talking. It turns out most of you don’t want a PCA split. It also turns out that my wife’s greatest fears have come true, I’m reviled the interweb over. To many of the responses the question needs to be asked: what are you…
Could a split the best thing for the PCA? I know this is a question that won’t get me elected moderator, but maybe it’s one that more leaders in the PCA should be considering. While immediately many people will begin rummaging for reasons why the answer to my question is,…

Editors note: The Editors of V.73 came across this article, written by Justin Woodall, and thought it was worth sharing with a wider audience. As I have watched the intinction debates unfold, both on the floor of General Assembly and in cyberspace since then, it has seemed that often times, both…
Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also more hard to bear. The frequent attempt to conceal mental pain increases the burden: it is easier to say “My tooth is aching” than to say “My heart is broken.” – CS Lewis, The Problem…
The AC is working to updated the aging PCAnet.org website…
I’ve been watching the PCA’s General Assemblies since they started streaming video in 2008, but 2012 was my first time there as a commissioner. Even with a decent knowledge of how things “work” in our denomination being there in person still provided a new perspective on “how the sausage is made…”
So last week, by a margin of fourteen votes, the 40th General Assembly voted to send a proposed amendment to BCO 58 to the Presbyteries that will effectively ban the practice of intinction. The church plant I serve does not practice intinction, but I am not opposed to it. I…
Nostalgia is denial – denial of the painful present… the name for this denial is golden age thinking – the erroneous notion that a different time period is better than the one one’s living in – it’s a flaw in the romantic imagination of those people who find it difficult…
