Question about the LAP and the FV.

[Gryphonette]

Sometimes I realize I've been assuming something to be true without actually knowing it's true.

Is Pr. Wilkins the driving force behind the FV in the Louisiana Presbytery? Or was the FV - in a more diaphanous, ephemeral form - already present and he just "codified" it, so to speak?

In other words,, is the LAP largely (though not entirely) FV because of the presence within it of Pr. Wilkins, or is it possible Pr. Wilkins is himself FV because he is in the LAP?

In the LAP, AAPC is the 400 pound gorilla like PCPC is in the NTP. Wilkins has been in that Presbytery for over 18 years and wheels a lot of influence.

Wilkins is definately one of the major sources of FV in the LAP. In fact he was getting into FV long before it became FV.

Ah. Well, that's what I figured, but not being in the PCA I wasn't certain.

Mare-see boo-koo. ;^)

What do PCPC and NTP stand for?

 

[westminken]

PCPC is Park Cities Presbyterian Church and NTP is the North Texas Presbytery. Both are PCA.

PCPC has thousands of members; most PCA at best have several hundred maybe, so by size they have a great impact on NTP. They are also a very wealthy church having split from Highland Park Presbyterian, perhaps at the time the largest and one of the wealthiest PCUSA churches.

Why is PCPC unique in the North Texas Presbytery?

Plus they have a whole lot of TE's at that church as well as interns who are also members of the NTP.
