This week our friends at Patheos are hosting a symposium on the future of evangelicalism . There are a number of noteworthy contributors—Mark Noll, Marvin Olasky , Andy Crouch, William Lane Craig, Rodney Stark—and a few of lesser interest (namely, me). Along with my submission (” Our Unevenly Distributed Future “), you can find essays by our Evangel bloggers Matthew Anderson (” New Life in Ancient Sources “), and Justin Taylor (” The Evangelical Reformed Movement: A Comeback “).
And in case you missed them, you can catch up on the symposiums on the future of Catholicism and Mainline Protestantism .
