My Baptist church in Lake Oswego, Oregon actually had Tony Campolo speak at a Baptist Retreat for men, back over 35 years ago. He gave a sermon called, “It’s Friday, but Sunday’s a-Coming!”
I and many others thought it was good and he was a very good and animated speaker.
HOWEVER ... I think 35 years later, our same Baptist Convention would not be inviting Tony Campolo, again ... :-) ...
back oh now it’s been 40+ years ago he was close with the Youth For Christ leadership and was at our annual meeting in rockford in 1975. I met him and was at jesse jackson’s church while there. Since then Campolo has stated that everyone has Christ in their heart, YFC dissolved the relationship. he was a likable guy. socialist to the core.
Good news.
