An evangelical manifesto has just been released. It’s a rather remarkable statement, and I will be very curious to see how it’s received. When the Vatican releases documents, Roman Catholics worldwide are mandated to take them seriously and study them, regardless of whether they eventually assent to or dissent from, the teaching. But that is NOT the practice in the Protestant and Reform contexts, let alone the evangelical. So I can’t wait to see what, if anything, comes from this.

Update: Kelly Fryer has a good analysis of it, and don’t forget to notice how VERY FEW women have signed on (at least so far).
