I've seen a huge amount of wokeness from the Australian TGC in articles shared by friends. Would not recommend.Doesn't TGC have numerous out of country franchises so to speak? I have found them, especially the Australian one, more reliable, less conscience binding and less political, so far anyway...
Really? I must be behind on my reading....I've seen a huge amount of wokeness from the Australian TGC in articles shared by friends. Would not recommend.
I think this is good advice. I can think of a few men in our own day that are absolutely worth reading, like Joel Beeke, but oftentimes their best work is in pointing us back to another era in the church.In my opinion, save the rare exception, these websites and organizations are cancers. Most of the time, they are parachurch organizations that have themselves confused with the institutional Church, and usually end up effecting the theological and moral demise of entire denominations. Just look at the damage TGC and Acts 29 has done over here. The best thing for you to do, if you are able, is to buy books by men that have been dead for at least 100 years. You won't get current events in them, but who needs current events when they are presented and interpreted through godless ideologies?
Hi,
Are there such websites from the rest of the world, offering theological articles and more current events style pieces? Preferably British?

Thank you. I have it marked.We launched a new blog that I am over-seeing. We hope to make it into a more Reformed TGC as time progresses. There is a lot planned for it, such as interviews with translators and authors, articles tackling issues facing the church and culture, and book reviews from other publishers. The blog's goal is not to solely promote our books but to have a place where people can read and feel comfortable knowing it is from a distinctly Reformed worldview.
If anyone has any suggestions about what they would like to see on our blog, do not hesitate to reach out.

Great. Feedback is welcomed via DM.Thank you. I have it marked.
I am genuinely interested Taylor, what damage has Acts 29 done? I ask because a good friend promotes Acts 29 churches here. I have been concerned because 'reformed' churches that I know of tend to be less confessional when they become Acts 29 churches.Just look at the damage TGC and Acts 29 has done over here.

My suspicion is that Acts 29 churches are ones that want to engage contemporary culture. This makes them prone to 'woke' influences.
I don't want to derail the thread so I won't prolong a discussion. I am just wondering if my concerns have been justified?
Let's be honest here, Grand Rapids is a Dutch colony.I missed "Non-USA" in your requests. I suppose our blog suggestion would still be relevant as we are not specifically looking to tackle current events in America, but rather the universal chAttach filesurch.

Edit: To @Taylor Sexton's advice, "buy books by men that have been dead for at least 100 years," we also adapt chapters into articles from men and women that have long been in glory. His advice is sound.
Thanks for the feedback. I think I resolved it. Let me know if it is any better.Thanks for sharing; I'm excited to see where this endeavor will lead!
Here's one practical bit of feedback: when I look at your site on my laptop, the full top half of the screen is dominated by the banner (even while scrolling). It seems a bit overbearing - perhaps the menu/banner could take up a bit less space while scrolling so it's easier to see the content you're looking to highlight?
Granted, Acts 29 probably hasn't done as much direct damage as TGC has, since TGC has a massive pen with which to write. I mainly just threw Acts 29 in with TGC because they are all the same people (which is another issue, in my opinion). In general, though, your assessment is pretty much what I was getting at. At a fundamental level, any parachurch organization that begins to behave like a denomination (and Acts 29 is often mistaken for one, and really behaves like one) is bad news. These kinds of organizations tend to have no accountability.I am genuinely interested Taylor, what damage has Acts 29 done? I ask because a good friend promotes Acts 29 churches here.

Agreed on Dr. Beeke; he's fantastic. That said, the draw to Beeke's work is that he focuses on the guys who've been dead for over a 100 years, that Taylor mentioned.I think this is good advice.

Thank you. It shows my concerns were well founded. Here in New Zealand some churches describe themselves as:Granted, Acts 29 probably hasn't done as much direct damage as TGC has, since TGC has a massive pen with which to write.

Yes. The churches I know in the Acts 29 movement would distance themselves from Driscoll, but continue his flawed methodology.I assume you mean besides Mark Driscoll?

Sorry to derail the thread.
I have been getting their emails for some time. I find their material very helpful.Here's a British site that may fit what you are looking for: https://www.reformationscotland.org/

Where do you find the list of the board officers? I can only find the board members, council members, and staff leadership which are all more diverse groups than this.
- The governing board is hypocritical in their push for racial inclusion, as there is not a single "POC" among the board's officers (unless you count the Asian, whose status as a "POC" is disputed, depending on which communist needs their backup at any given moment).
On their “About” page, you can see the Chair, Vice-Chair, and Secretary.Where do you find the list of the board officers? I can only find the board members, council members, and staff leadership which are all more diverse groups than this.
