Hey Family!
Dr. Smith (my New Testament Prof) mentioned this article in class on Thursday. he was unable to locate it, but through my AMAZING technical skils (HA!) I was able to find the article.
The sad part is I could have told them all of this without the millions of dollars that went into this study. We'll see what happens from here but at least this is a step in the right direction.
Be sure to share this with the ministers that you know who have opposed the "seeker friendly" mentality that leaves out who Jesus really is. These men and women have stood for doctrinal purity and soundness. They need the encouragement-They need to know that we love them for standing up for the TRUTH of the Gospel while still maintaining an attitude of Love. We owe them a HUGE thank you and a hearty God Bless! The need to know that we will contuinue to support them as they continue to Stand for the Real Jesus, the one who died to set us free from sin. They need to know that they were not wrong or backwards for doing what is right. We also must continue to keep them in our prayers. pray for their strength in the Lord as they continue to do God's work.

James, I read the article and scanned the comments... Wow. What a mess! Seems there are those out there whose main agenda is to say "I'm right and you're wrong." There were a FEW comments I agreed with; among my favorites was the one that asserted that "Seeker Sensitive" would be just fine as a Church construct if we 1) remembered that it is Jesus Christ Who is the seeker of that which is lost, and 2) were sensitive to Him, His Word, His Spirit, etc.

Hey there! Merry Christmas. I pray that the Lord is ending 2007 for you with blessing. Can't wait to watch the Packers beat the Patriots in the Superbowl in Feb.!
See ya in January.
