Here is an interesting article by Carl Trueman with regards to the YRR (Yound, Restless and Reformed) movement. The concerns listed are very interesting, and would surely serve much food for thought.
These, point to the dilemmas which the new Reformed movement must face: how much is this movement about genuine belief and how much is social belonging? And for its leadership: how much is about genuine mission, and how much is about self-promotion and self-perpetuation?
...
Thus, one test as to whether the new Reformed revival is really a movement of substance and not simply a disparate collection of personality cults is to see whether the church is being built up and strengthened. ... Yet [the existance of] those [people] who can hear and believe all the wonderful teaching and still return to an Adventist church as a mission field give the rest of us some pause for thought

This is my blog, and in order to facilitate an edifying exchange, I have came up with various blog rules. Please do read them before commenting, as failure to abide by them would make your post liable to being unapproved for publication. Violation of any of the rules three or more times, or at the blog owner's judgment, would make one liable to be banned from posting unless the blog owner (me) is satisfied that such behavior would not occur again.
