Assumptions

Mark Dever has written an article titled "Assumptions and Pursuits." In it he speaks about "seeker-sensitive" churches and the tension between focusing on theology and focusing on evangelism.

A couple of quotes:
...the most basic practical division among evangelical pastors today may be between those who pursue faithfulness and assume relevance and those who pursue relevance and assume faithfulness.

...the first generation has the Gospel, the second generation assumes the Gospel, the third generation loses the Gospel.
