Reading this month's "Briefing" I have been intrigued by an Article called "Reaching out without selling out". It paints a brief profile of a guy called Mark Discoll and his book entitled "Confessions of a Reformed Rev". Mark is a minister of Mars Hill Church in the States. He seems quite a guy, or should I say "dude"! In 10 years God has blessed him greatly and his church is now 4000 strong!! This article and his church website has inspired me to become a "Cool Calvinist!"
Of the three people who read this blog, Do you any of you know much else about him, does he have any more books? Is he coming to the UK? and more pertinently Who is his contempory in the UK - someone who seems to be at the forefront of our Culture and still sound doctrinally on the national scale?
Check out his church website, and amongst other stuff download some Rocking Hymns!!!

Clearly that would be me!
Steve Timmis is linking with Driscoll's conference in Seattle. I think we lack equivalents to this in the UK in many ways. THis idea of being theologically conservative but culturally liberal... we don't easily do that. But in Driscoll speak thats cos we hold too many non-essentials in our 'closed hand' as opposed to our 'open hand'
