Brent Detwiler is reporting a second secession--of another congregation from the SGM.  It's called Grace Community in Sarasota, FL. There is reason to believe that others will follow suit.  There are reports that most of the FL congregations may follow suit. There are reasons to believe that many have left Crossway, Charlotte, NC, headed by a strenuous defender of C.J. "It's All about Me"

Poor Robin Jordan, he say's "disconcerting," as if expectations were not met.  What else should he have expected?  We're not surprised since our expectations were always low, especially after Toon.  We'd say, "Par for course."  We also hold very low expectations for ACNA and AMiA, theologically.  It hurts to have read "too much," but it spares one of these disappointments.
