What is happening in Evangelical land?
Evangelicals in Argentina are pushing to get national recognition for Reformation Day–October 31. Always good to see reporting by Messiah University graduate Morgan Lee!
Sadly, this doesn’t surprise me: white evangelicals are more likely to endorse political violence than their non-Christian counterparts. What is going on here? Matthew 5:9.

Some Southern Baptists are outraged by Albert Mohler’s response to the the Kentucky sexual assault bill controversy. The remarks about “worldview” analysis are especially damning. It’s also worth noting that Rick Warren retweeted this:

Kirk Cameron’s new children’s book is about loving your enemies. He is inviting “atheists, progressives, leftists, and drag queens to sit down and have conversation.” I wonder how far these invitations will go. Will he specifically reach out to these people or is he expecting them to contact him? Will Cameron sit down with fellow Christians–even fellow evangelicals–who believe that his approach to faith and public life is ruining the witness of the church?
