Uganda can greatly benefit from American evangelicals if they separate the Scott Lively extremists from the Rick Warren-type of moderate evangelicals.
I owe my nurture to evangelicalism. The evangelical wins hands down in the history of the church when it comes to nurturing a biblically literate laity. When we think of evangelism, evangelicals are the most resourceful, the most intrepid, and the most creative. But evangelicals themselves would say that they have never come to grips with what the whole mystery of the church is.
More evangelicals today will visit abortion mills as clients than as ambassadors of Jesus Christ.
Prior to the reign of the godly King Josiah, the law of God had been lost in the temple for many years. Has the same thing occurred among us? Has the evangel been lost among evangelicals?
If the evangelicals vote, they determine the election.
I do great with Tea Party, I do great with conservatives I do great with moderates, I do great with evangelicals, I do great with everybody.
That has been one of the pleasant surprises of my semester - finding that some of my Liberty friends are still my friends, even though they now know where I stand on social and political issues. These aren't cloistered idealogues, for the most part. They have liberal and non-religious friends. I think they're much more compromising than the evangelicals of a generation ago.
I think there are other issues that the Democrats could use to rally evangelicals. There are a lot of us, for instance, who believe that the Bible calls us to be environmentally responsible.
Evangelicals have largely misinterpreted Aquinas, and they have placed on him views that he did not hold.
I have spent the last 30 years forming the religious right. I write a letter every week and send a newspaper every month to 200,000 pastors who are broadly called evangelicals, bringing them up to date on what is happening in Washington, in the state capitals, in the culture, and what we need to do about it. And of course I'm criticized for it, and of course I have calculated the positives and the negatives, but I have long been at peace with what I do.
Although they are unfailingly gracious, evangelicals are not so good at respecting professional boundaries.
Even evangelicals realize that Pinocchio's father was a carpenter too. That's the old joke.
I, for one, am quite willing to join the 'forgive, forget and move on' crowd, but it does make me wonder if Evangelicals are going to sound believable when they say that they tend to vote Republican because of their religious commitments to the family.
I am afraid that as evangelicals, we think that a work of art only has value if we reduce it to a tract.
In particular, the emerging call from our nation's evangelicals to protect God's creation is substantial
Evangelicals are distraught over the state of America because they have not been taught that we're aliens here.
One thing evangelicals want is a reprieve from intolerance against their beliefs, values, and practices.
When leading evangelicals say terrible things about Islam, evil things about Islam, terrible things about Muhammad, they ought to be ashamed of themselves.
When people say to me, 'You hate America,' I don't hate America. I love America. I am just embarrassed that it has been taken over by people like evangelicals, by people who do not believe in science and rationality. It is the 21st century. And I will tell you, my friend. The future does not belong to the evangelicals. The future does not belong to religion.
There is a bigotry rampant in America, against evangelicals. It is the last respectable bigotry.
