What I expected to battle/confront entering pastoral ministry in the SBC 9 years ago: issues with the doctrines of grace, male leadership in the church, strife with deacons. What I expected to battle/confront entering ministry of a confessional church plant 3 years ago: issues with creeds/confessions, issues with a plurality of elders, doc. of the Christian Sabbath. Those issues did surface (none with diaconal strife surprisingly), but in each setting I largely faced the same matter(s): anti-authoritarianism and the primacy of the local church in the Christian life. This is anecdotal evidence but I'm certain my experience isn't unique.














A masterclass in exposition: Indy explaining the Ark of the Covenant in Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981).
