Gnosticism in the Mainline
Mainline Decline “One of our finest hours was when our Presbyterian Publishing House, Westminster Press, published books on the death of God theology.” Thus spoke the 1996-97 moderator of the PCUSA, as he accepted the 1996 Alumnus of the Year award from Chicago Divinity School.

Evangelizing Pagans?
This is perhaps the most important question we could ask today. In the “Christian” West believers are back to square one. In many ways, we are out of gas, and going nowhere. Our old methods do not seem to be working, and no valid new ones are on the horizon. At the beginning the Christian […]
