Quote of the Day


Sadly and ironically, in its attempt to achieve cultural relevance, mainstream evangelicalism has become essentially irrelevant.  As Os Guinness points out, the seductive promise of 'relevance' is, in reality, the road to irrelevance.  When the church markets itself like the world, it loses the distinctiveness of its message and irretrievably compromises the gospel.  The entertainment value may be high, attracting throngs each week; but the eternal value is conspicuously absent, as those same people go home unchallenged and unchanged.

-John Macarthur-
