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.

Welcome Drew Lomax
Drew Lomax has a blog. Doesn't everyone? He has passed through the fiery trial of Evangelicalism.
Here is his blog.

John Mellencamp, another Lutheran, is also from Seymour. I once bought frozen yogurt from his sister-in-law, in Columbus, Ohio.
The previous Miss America, 2008, Kirsten Haglund, is Evangelical Covenant, which broke off from the Swedish Augustana Synod. Like the E Frees, the E Cs are Church Growth maxed out. Both are Pietistic break-offs from Augustana.
The new Governor of Arizona and now Miss America...
