..the SBC tried to be the “big tent” like the RNC—too much compromise. I find myself continuously having to redirect the Lifeway Bible study material back to sound interpretation of Scripture. Hope to abandon Lifeway completely soon...
And yet the day after you do that, you may meet someone who quite sincerely says that the message carried by Lifeway was the best thing their soul ever heard... and always gives you an orthodox reading when asked, when you don’t believe...
It’s hard to generalize. The bible is the only utterly infallible source material, but it is sometimes hard to understand. That’s why other literature exists at all. Always read everything with a soul leaned towards the Spirit.
