    May 29 @ 20/20 Vision for Schools

    20/20 churches activate people in their pews to do the work of ministry. In the context of education reform, that begins by recognizing that 50-80% of each congregation is already directly connected to public schools, as students, parents, grandparents, brothers, [...]

    This from his critique in Christianity Today of D.A. Carson’s analysis of Brian McLaren and the emerging church movement.
