Thank you Dr. Clark for this entry. Where do you see the Pentecostal churches such as; Assemblies Of God, Foursquare, etc fitting into the current state of Evangelicalism? Do you see these moving closer to the mainline as well?

Wow!!!
As a lifelong evangelical (Westmont & Fuller) who used to enjoy Christianity Today in the old days (and actually took classes from Lutheran Rod Rosenblatt when he was teaching at Westmont 100 years ago), your piece was spot on. I am becoming disgusted with what has become of evangelicalism and moving rapidly toward your camp. When evangelicalism has forgotten Henry, takes in the likes of Osteen, and accepts Open Theism as legitimate (ala Olson), it is time to ask if the word has any meaning any more. Thanks!

As far as I know, yes, but I haven't had extensive contact with that wing of the movement since the early 90s.
