Between the Trees

Recently Christianity Today posted a discussion of Tullian Tchvidjian’s new book Unfashionable. It was prompted by a mostly-critical review by Tullian’s friend Tim Challies. Tchvidjian is a rising star in evangelicalism whose first book Do I Know God? drew rave reviews a few years ago. He’s also recently become the pastor of James Kennedy’s former church, Coral Ridge Presbyterian.

The discussion at CT is titled, “Are Christians overemphasizing cultural renewal?” While I have very strong opinions on the question, I’m not naive enough to think that as a 21-year-old college student I can contribute anything new to the discussion. So instead I’m going to try to summarize both views in the next couple of posts and hopefully provide resources presenting both sides of the discussion. Since I’m on summer break now, I’m going to have a lot more time to do this, so hopefully the posts will be coming almost daily.
