A Must Read Post Over At Stand Firm

Scott Diekmann over at Stand Firm has an in depth look at the Pastoral Leadership Institute in a post titled "A Third Seminary in the LCMS?" In the post he makes the connection between the Pastoral Leadership Institute and the Church Growth Movement and what that means for us in the LCMS. He also gives a short history lesson on the group that has called itself a "...a Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod ministry." and it’s mission of training pastors and laity to grow the church through Madison Avenue style techniques that rely on markers other than the Means of Grace that Scripture promises and our confessions point to.

Great job Scott on well written and researched post!
