I have a deep suspicion for:
-Parachurch agencies that are built on current fads
-Parachurch agencies that do not exist to proclaim Jesus as their primary mission
Likewise, I'm suspicious of those that are not partnered with a local church or denomination.
Are there any organizations that are good? Where did the mandate to “organize” come from?
Couldn’t agree more.
30-35 years ago I knew a number of people who got caught up in Gothard’s special brand of legalism. People who aren’t Bereans aren’t likely to be discerning. I’d like to know what has happened to some of those families.
