Dan Strange on an Evangelical Theology of Religions
I am nearing the end of Daniel Strange's book, "For Their Rock is Not as Our Rock": An Evangelical Theology of Religions. With all the cold weather in Tennessee this past week, I was able to get close to the end.
All I can say is: if you have any interest in world religions and missions, get this book. I don't teach classes in either discipline per se at Union University. But if I did, I would certainly use this book. I am tempted to offer to teach a class in world religions or missions, just so I could use the book.
Here is a thesis statement of sorts which shows up a number of times in the book: "From the presupposition of an epistemologically authoritative biblical revelation, non-Christian religions are sovereignly directed, variegated and dynamic, collective human idolatrous responses to divine revelation behind which stand deceiving demonic forces. Being antithetically against yet parasitically dependent upon the truth of the Chirstian worldview, non-Christian religions are 'subversivfely fulfilled' in the gospel of Jesus Christ." (italics his).
Dan is Academic Vice Principal at Oak Hill College in North London. A short video on the book can be viewed here. Dan's bio can be found here. The book can be purchased through Amazon in the US here, and Amazon in the UK here. Good work Dan.

Moore and Moore
Russ Moore is a good guy, but I suspect Douglas Wilson has the best of him here on recent events in Alabama. This issue is concerned with the nature of authority, and the nature of governmental authority in particular.
