Bonhoeffer in a concentration camp For anyone who knows me even just a little bit. Then you know how much I love reading Dietrich Bonhoeffer. I think he was one of the greatest theological minds to have ever lived, and yet he died at such an early age (hung at 39), that he left much [...]

Phillip Johnson, over at Pyromaniac had this to say about me on Friday, July 29th. Rhett Smith is the very model of a postmodern college minister.

Evangelical Outpost has an interesting blog entry today, referring to another series of blog entries by Phil Johnson. There seems to be a discussion going on over what they consider to be fads and trends in evangelicalism, or I would say the Church as a whole. They both come up with interesting lists, but I’m [...]
