The 48th PCA General Assembly Postponed: Some Questions to Consider

While the PCA Administrative Committee’s action is understandable the Assembly cancellation raises important and unavoidable questions.

Written by Brad Isbell | Tuesday, April 14, 2020

A small number of PCA churches have already departed to other denominations or are attempting to form a new denomination, largely precipitated by Revoice-related concerns. It seems likely that a year without an assembly, especially under the present circumstances, may help protect the health of presbyters, but may be harmful to the health of the... Continue Reading

I have not addressed many of the other underlying theological problems of the nature of homosexuality and how it is to be viewed and treated in individuals, but I believe that if we do not confront the errors of aberrant sexual beliefs and practices will change the course of the PCA.  It can happen.  There...
