John Fea   |  June 10, 2021

The Evangelical Immigrant Roundtable sends a message to Kamala Harris

Christian men are more concerned about masculinity than other men:

Christian men are way more concerned about masculinity than are other men, acc to Barna.

Is evangelicalism fractured in six ways?

A Trump court evangelical on the SBC:

“I am convinced that as America goes, so goes the world. And I am convinced as Christians go, so goes America. And as evangelicals go, so go Christians. As Southern Baptists go, so go evangelicals. As (SBC) leadership goes, so go Southern Baptists”

Southern Baptists at a crossroads

A Catholic take on Liberty University

Speaking of Liberty, the Standing for Freedom Center quotes Milton Friedman:

When New York Magazine notices the Southern Baptists…

Shane Claiborne:

@BethMooreLPM & @drmoore my friends (at @commonhymnal) created this song and thought it might be encouraging to you both right now. It’s beautiful. And so are you. Grateful for your courage. https://t.co/GAWm6V5D5b
