Re Mrs James
You need to make yourself familiar with what Mrs. James is doing.
Go to The Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood for analysis.
In my humble opinion, she is laying the groundwork for women's ordination, though, at present, she pulls back from advocating female elders.
But, all her presuppositions and exegesis points in that direction.
And, like it or not, her reputation is bound up with that of her husband's.
Note that she speaks at Christians for Biblical Equality, and has their feminist speakers at her Ezer conferences. Cf. Tim and David Bayly's blog.
Re Frame: That we often fight about wrong things NEVER exempts us from contending for the gospel. And, though I disagree with Frame on worship, that is a tertiary issue, as far as I'm concerned.
Dr. Futato's situation may have been complex, and not at all judging his teaching ability or confessional fidelity. It just made his appointment there a strange choice, particularly in regards to timing.
All that to say is: Greenville is not for everyone, maybe (and frankly I think it is vastly and unfairly underrated).
But, there are more than two choices, are there not? My first pick for anyone, were money and distance no obstacles, would be WSC.
