Whose Religion Is Christianity?: The Gospel beyond the West

May 26th, 2008 · No Comments

I’m not going to link to it because it contains a lot of immature language, but a while ago I caught part of a video where someone posed the question, “If you didn’t know anything about the Bible and came across one and started reading it, would you believe it?” The guy talking was a [...]

Mark Driscoll takes The Shack to the Woodshed

May 6th, 2008 · 5 Comments
