Mark Driscoll and the New Calvinists

The New York Times might be biased, but their writers are still some of the best in the world. Case in point, a new article on Mark Driscoll, Mars Hill Church and the "New Calvinists." Read it here.

Driscoll and his church have gotten a lot of attention over the last few years. Some good, plenty bad. This piece is by far the best. Whoever Molly Worthen is, she knows her stuff. She is able to outline well both Driscoll, the resurgence of Calvinism in the church and, if you can believe it, Calvinism itself. Her treatment of the theology and ecclesiology did not have me, as is usually the case, offended or rolling my eyes due to ignorance. Rather, she did her homework.

Anyway, it is a long article, but brilliant. And Driscoll, for all his faults, is changing the world. Read the whole thing.
