Conversations concerning public expressions and involvement of the evangelical community.

Thursday, January 05, 2006

A synopsis of my primary viewpoint is that the evangelical community, particularly the more visible expressions of this community, misunderstands the role of the church in society. In its attempt to shape American society these evangelicals unfortunately appeal to the very aspects of society which the church should be trying to transform. A political, rather than biblical, form of power informs the movement and the materialistic idolatry of American society is re-enforced, rather than challenged, through the church's failure to address its own materialistic measures of achievement and success.

The purpose of this blog is to entertain views about the current evangelical community, especially as it interacts in the public arena.
