2007 EPA Awards-- Some Articles Worth Your Time

No, not the Enviornmental Protection Agency, but the Evangelical Press Association.

The EPA Awards are now out. (OK, they have been out a couple of months, but nobody told me till just recently!)

My friend Carol Pipes won an award of merit for OnMission Magazine.

I was asked to be a judge and they listed my choices. I was able to find a few of the articles online. Mark Dever's article is incredibly important and you need to read it. I am disappointed I cannot find the article by J. Lee Grady. Although I did not come to the same conclusion that Grady did, his article touched my heart as the father of three girls.

BIBLICAL EXPOSITION
First Place: Christianity Today, "Nothing But the Blood" by Mark Denver
Second Place: SpiritLed Woman, "The Daughter's Inheritance" by J. Lee Grady
Third Place: Leadership, "Sex & the City of God" by Mark Buchanan
Fourth Place: Christian Leader, "Welcome to the Complex Life" by Pierre Gilbert
Fifth Place: Discipleship Journal, "God, Why Am I Still Single?" by Lori Smith

I tried not to be biased regarding Mark's aricle as I know Mark and we recently co-taught a class at Reformed Theological Seminary (syllabus), but I thought it was the best of the ones they asked me to review.

And, for those of you who do not know Grady, he is an irenic yet prophetic voice to his own movement (see here, here, and here) and to evangelicalism as a whole (see his article on Barna's Revolution.)
