"Dan Kimball's comments were courageous and correct," he said. "An evangelicalism without the Gospel is no advance for the church."


That this simple statement is called "courageous" is a measure of how far evangelicalism has fallen.
Dan Kimball contacted me out of the blue a couple of months ago. I can only assume someone Googles his name and passes postings on to him. He was pretty clear in his email that his theology is rock-solid evangelical. He and Driscoll are two bright lights in an otherwise disgusting trend. Moore's comment appears to have referenced Kimball's willingness to speak out against a VERY popular movement.
