(Steve, PLEASE don't see this as nitpicking, but you need to drop the apostrophe in "it's" in the phrase: "Celebrating It's Sixth Anniversary." It should be "Celebrating Its Sixth Anniversary." I know. I have too much time on my hands. Just a suggestion. The only reason I mention it is that you have the phrase in that nice graphic.)Wyman Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01647279431365978833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14012689.post-1130514241371034502005-10-28T11:44:00.000-04:002005-10-28T11:44:00.000-04:00AMEN AMEN, I have read the 107 as I call them at l...AMEN AMEN, I have read the 107 as I call them at least 10 times all of the way (many of times bits and peaces) through and each time it is quite a convicting time. <BR/><BR/>I have on many occasions used the 107 Theses to send to pastors and friends and many many people usually prefacing my comments to them with the fact that this reformation document can be used in all things in Christian ministry not just "music". <BR/><BR/>Blessings Steve for the time you put into this.Shawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06809663608386103910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14012689.post-1130474104201994162005-10-28T00:35:00.000-04:002005-10-28T00:35:00.000-04:00Sledge:Keep overthrowing those money-changers' tab...Sledge:<BR/>Keep overthrowing those money-changers' tables! <BR/><BR/>Hold fast,and <B>keep pounding on that door</B> with all your might, Campi! <BR/>After 8 years of hammering, I know your hands must be blistered, your knuckles bleeding, and your arms aching, but I'm afraid that no one else with any "clout" (for lack of a better term) is going to speak up but you.

I'm sure there will be some who justify what they do with "well here we're able to reach otherwise those who we couldn't reach with the gospel...." Interestingly, though, some of the folks who would NEVER grace the doors of TBN's studios WILL grace the office doors of Zondervan, et al without qualm. But really what's the difference between them?<BR/><BR/>I have a feeling that accountability won't occur unless such "leaders" are named publically called to account for their duplicity. Otherwise there's no reason to change. =( I wish I was wrong...and maybe I am.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14770822482205703050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14012689.post-1130465960505259152005-10-27T22:19:00.000-04:002005-10-27T22:19:00.000-04:00I remember hearing a tape from a conference where ...I remember hearing a tape from a conference where you spoke on CCM.<BR/>You voiced many things I had been recently thinking, and it was encouraging to know I wasn't alone.<BR/><BR/>I also had a term for a disturbing trend that was highly annoying at best.

There needs to be a theological line drawn in the sand that calls for repentance among evangelicals that I am now offering The 107 THESES as one such voice. <<BR/><BR/>Oh how desperately we need this call. thank you for putting power behind your punch. I pray it resonates as this is the only answer right now. You said it! No one is listening and the love of money is at the root of all sorts of evil. What grieves me is that you are the only one that sees this. Keep on Elijah. Keep on! You inspire me.Bhedrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08091896907803479900noreply@blogger.com
