excellent

This is a great progressive Christian blog. John is an excellent writer and observer of current trends in the Presbyterian Church U.S.A. I consult this blog daily.

poor

Why would you want to call yourself a Christian and deny the Christ who saves? He should eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow he dies.

very good

This is the blog of a liberal minister living in Tennessee. He writes about matters like race relations, homophobia, the Iraq war, and his more conservative counterparts in the pulpit. His tone is cordial yet borders on the combative at times. He also employs cynical and irreverent humor to communicate his positions. I say all the above to describe this fellow, not criticize him. I enjoy his writing and the passion with which he defends his views. He comes across as self-righteous at times, self-congratulatory in his enlightened beliefs and quick to label others as intolerant instead of trying to understand them. But I commend his courage in speaking his mind to an often hostile audience. You may love him or hate him, but you will find his blog worth your time.
