@mygospelfriends what say you?? :/RT @johnmacarthur: A lack of expository preaching demonstrates a lack of submission to Scripture
@mygospelfriends I prefer a mixture of both. But honestly as long as the one preaching is led by the Holy Spirit, either way will be right!
Hall Monitor, Chase
It looks as though my church is soon to appoint a female Associate Pastor. Don’t get me wrong, I love women….so much so that I married one. It’s my understanding however that scripture expressly forbids this in the pastoral-epistles. Am I incorrect? Is this a hill that one should die on? How would you respond (or how have you responded) to this kind of situation?
Just seeking some wisdom is all..

@mygospelfriends Re Driscoll: I think people disliked his personality, & they were looking for a reason to take him down. Max H. is right. “Ministry Of Criticism” is so sad. Offended/Victim culture has permeated the church, and it sickens me.

From Max Headroom – Question to The General and The Gospel Friends: There is a church near where I live that seems to attract adulterous people. What responsibility does a church or pastor have when they attract people in adulterous relationships? What responsibility does a pastor have when some of those who have left their wives are now in church leadership?

From Brad Melton: Would appreciate this as a podcast discussion topic – entrepreneurial tent making vs. full-time missions support raising. Experiencing this with some good friends who are full-time fundraising for the mission field. Other friends are firm in their opinion that tent making is the correct approach.
Chris James Stuttard via Facebook
Just to be super awkward may I throw in the George Muller card. That guy did all his work never asking for a penny. Built orphan houses and fed thousands. Was donated millions and never asked for a penny.
For him he relied on God for the money and just did what he knew God wanted him to do.
Brad Melton
Yep. Thanks, Chris. Would very much appreciate that third approach thrown into the mix as well. Focused my plea on just FT vs TM because these are the two viewpoints predominantly at odds among my friends, as well as the two focused on by this blogger review. However, I agree the conversation needs to include all options -especially the holistic trust in God approach you mentioned. Perhaps the topic should be titled “What is the best/correct strategy for missions support?”
Are short term mission trips good stewardship?
