Rogue Lutheran is a new blog about apostate trends among the conservative Lutherans, especially the Missouri Synod.
The author is a Missouri Synod businesswoman who has done plenty of research.
I created the image above because of the statement once made by another woman in the church (not Joan of Arc): "If the bishops are going to act like women, then the women are going to act like bishops."
Many younger men are fighting this too. Rogue Lutheran surprised me by revealing how deeply embedded this cancer is in the LCMS.
Rick Warren has taken this to another level, a new depth, and he is far more influential that I would have thought.
At the Borders Bookstore, I opened the new, adulatory book about Rick Warren and wondered about the author of such bilge. Shock! He was my recent journalism professor. I imagine the book will sell 100,000 copies or more because of its complete lack of discernment. More stories will be added to the canon about St. Rick of Saddleback.
I hope this trend of dissenting blogs continues. Each one adds to the material available. A new topic or a new perspective draws in another group of readers. I heard that MLC and WLC students stopped tweeting for two weeks while they discussed the infamous video and Ichabod, which still gets dozens of responses on the story.

TCN sounds like WELS' Church and Change.
"Here is the transforming church network ( TCN), the Church Growth steering committee in the LCMS. This link explains the LCMS church growth process. This is an excellent resource document that explains the TCN & Pastoral Leadership Institute (PLI) and how they infiltrate churches and how deceptive their methods are. Pay close attention to part 4, and this excerpt, “What the congregation may or may not know, is that the pastor already signed a covenant before the consultation process ever took place in which he commits to the transformation process.” This is not exactly ‘informed consent’ for the laity."
