The New Calvinism
March 19, 2009
For those who haven't seen it yet, David Van Biema has a piece in the latest issue of Time magazine about the resurgence of Calvinism as a culture-shaping theology. Despite a few caricatures (Calvin's God is not only "utterly sovereign," but also "micromanaging") and inaccuracies (are there really contemporary Calvinists who say that non-Calvinists are not Christians?), it is nice to hear that everyone knows that Calvinism is "where the energy and the passion are in the Evangelical world." Van Biema mentions Alliance Council members Al Mohler and John Piper specifically.
