David Zahl Talks About Mockingbird Ministries: The IM Interview

UPDATE: Baptists might want to read this post on semi-Pelagianism, and enjoy the Tom Petty video If you’ve been paying attention, you should have noticed that the most interesting blog out in the Christian/Reformation blogosphere is Mockingbird, the front page to the world of Mockingbird Ministries. Dead on, provocative stuff with the strong scent of [...]

Jared Wilson: The Internet Monk Interview

Jared Wilson is the author Your Jesus Is Too Safe and the blogmeister at Gospeldrivenchurch.com. 1. You’re obviously influenced by the rhetorical style of someone like Driscoll, in that you are communicating intensely, but with humor and pop-culture to counter-balance. Yet, you’ve managed to put the emphasis on the Biblical content, not on the style [...]

Dr. Mike Wittmer: Heaven Is A Place On Earth: The IM Interview

As we were discussing the subject of “Can We Be Too God-Centered?,” I remembered an excellent book I’d read a couple of years ago: Heaven Is A Place On Earth: Why Everything You Do Matters To God by Dr. Michael Wittmer. I contacted Dr. Wittmer and he graciously agreed to a blog interview here at [...]

Christine Wicker: The Internet Monk Interview with the Author of Fall of the Evangelical Nation

UPDATE: I’m just curious: do some of you always descend into railing preacher mode when you encounter a person who isn’t on the same page as you, or is today just not your day? Internet Monk.com is extremely honored to have Christine Wicker in the house for the IM interview segment today. Christine is the [...]

David Hayward, “The Naked Pastor:” The IM Interview

I’ve long admired pastor, blogger and cartoonist David Hayward, aka The Naked Pastor. (That’s Naked. Not “Nekkid.” He’s not up to anything.) I’ve been excited about this interview and it’s proven to be everything I hoped for. David has a fascinating journey and a point of view the IM audience will appreciate. I’ve already gotten [...]

The IMonk on Steve Brown, Etc.

It’s my third go around on my favorite radio/podcast program. We talked about Halloween, the Election and House, M.D. If SBE isn’t on your itunes, you’re missing one of the best treats on the web. Thanks to Erik, Kathy and Steve for a great time.

Julie Neidlinger’s Real Voice: The Internet Monk Interview

My guest today is Julie Neidlinger, who blogs at loneprairie.net and recently wrote a very honest and controversial post called “Why I Walked Out of Church.” That post has been discussed all around the blogosphere over the past month. I’m assuming you’ve read that post before you read this interview, otherwise you’ll be in the [...]

It’s a genuine honor to have Dr. Nathan Finn, Assistant Professor of Church History at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, as my guest today at InternetMonk.com.

UPDATE: Thanks for the good response and discussion. If you would like to read an excellent defense of the Baptist view of church membership, John Piper has written an excellent article on Church Membership and Accountability. A very good survey of the basics. This post begins several posts on the subject of the church and [...]
