It needs more Augustine and less Pelagius, and a theological and pastoral leadership that understands that it is not above its pay grade to suggest to its people that a purpose-driven life requires a purpose-driven death.</i> http://homepage.mac.com/francis.beckwith/TheCitySummer2009.pdf As I noted in my piece last year in The City:
