The Future of Mortification
July 29, 2013
Now that I am moving from Philadelphia to Harrisonburg, VA (more on that later) I am being asked if the humble little podcast I record with Carl Trueman will continue. And since most of the evangelical world seems to be holding its collective breath over this vital issue I want to assure you that the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals has marshaled its considerable resources to insure the continued production of the Mortification Of Spin.

A number have been asking if Todd's move means an end to the Mortification of Spin podcasts. I am sorry to disappoint: since the podcast is almost the ultimate chewing gum and paper clip production, now involving four guys, two microphones, one computer and a plastic table and four chairs in the entrance lobby of Cornerstone Presbyterian Church in Ambler, it looks set to continue. And in a world where evangelical comment is increasingly censored from within by the humourless and the Top Men, a samizdat operation is unlikely to lose its purpose in the near future. Of course, now that Todd is a presbyterian, I will not be able to mock him mercilessly for his Schwaermerite credentials but, seeing as he is still only PCA, I can guarantee that the sneering condescension will continue until the denominational affiliation improves.
