  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I am adding this to my list of reads.

Can I ask a question, I see a brief reference to the 'Purpose Driven Life'. Did he say much on that in the book? Our church did a series on it and I was left with some uneasiness like something was wrong with it but I was never able to put my finger on it so I just stopped going to the small group.

Thanks.

Yep, there is a chapter devoted to the PDL. It's not written by MacArthur though. (He's the general editor and did not write all the chapters.)

Basically, it addresses some issues with the book without calling it outright heresy.
