I was blessed to be able to meet Steve two and a halve weeks ago in Denver at the CBA convention. When I saw he was signing, I knew I needed to stand in line. His humor is truly infectious. And his southern bass is radio magic. But he is solidly Reformed, even if he’s not typical in his expression of it. He’s willing to be friends with non-reformed folks. He dares to hang out with the outsiders, with the “liberals”. Yet he stays true to what he believes in. He’s “inclusive” without being “inclusive” if you know what I mean. IOW’s, he’s cool, in a Christian sense.

My only exposure to Steve Brown has been reading a book of his called “A Scandalous Freedom”. I came away liking him but disagreeing with his take on freedom. My background is not reformed (I’m Anabaptist/Pietist via the Brethren) and so perhaps I didn’t understand where he was coming from or what exactly he was trying to say…

I’d be interested in anybody’s comments on my review: http://metapundit.net/sections/blog/38 and http://metapundit.net/sections/blog/51

“All that stuff Drisocll gets in trouble for has been perfected by Steve Brown years ago.”

This comment is very insightful…

Steve Brown spoke at my college graduation Baccalaurate service. It was tremendous. He compared himself to a corpse in the corner. His comments were completely unexpected and unflinchingly stark.

The first few times I heard Steve on the radio, to be honest, I didn’t care for him. He has a really dry wit. But now, his show is my favorite 15 minutes on the radio. He has an honesty that is refreshing. I will definitely look for this book.
