I am thankful for Jared Wilson’s latest post over at his blog on TGC . Wilson takes on the issue of celebrity pastors. The post is worth reading. I must however admit to feeling a bit of incredulity when I first read Wilson’s post. Even more so was my surprise (dismay? disbelief?...

Tom Chantry is NOT happy with the MOS team. His latest blog entry uses words like “ignorant,” and “galling” which seems to confirm his own assessment that he sounds “irritable.” Indeed. Chantry’s bad mood was provoked by the most recent episode of...
