One of my contacts found the Tendrils paper, mildly critical of Church Growth in WELS, at the Church and Change site.
Here it is:

To read the files, one must be a member. To be a member, one must ask permission. Clever? I asked permission today. No response so far. If they let me join, Ichabodians will be the first to know.
The children of darkness are wiser in this generation than the children of light. Church and Changians want their bovine and ovine followers to know the score, as in Know the Enemy, even if the enemy is milder than oatmeal, as tepid as lukewarm tea.
ICHABOD, THE GLORY HAS DEPARTED - explores the Age of Apostasy, predicted in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, to attack Objective Faithless Justification, Church Growth Clowns, and their ringmasters. The antidote to these poisons is trusting the efficacious Word in the Means of Grace. John 16:8. Isaiah 55:8ff. Romans 10. Most readers are WELS, LCMS, ELS, or ELCA. This blog also covers the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, and the Left-wing, National Council of Churches denominations.
