I am in agreement with almost everything you have said here.
But I am wondering if this particular Church (Church of the Outer Banks) is the exception of an Acts 29 network Church, rather than the norm. They don’t appear to be in keeping with the Acts 29 network
statement of faith .
I think one of the problems with the word "Reformed" these days, is that it is usually used in the narrow sense.
Many people call themselves "Reformed" when basically they are only Reformed in Soteriology (TULIP).
They do not hold to things like the solas, or the regulative principle of worship.
I would also like to state that by looking at the beliefs that the Acts 29 network claim to believe. I kind of doubt that they hold to either women elders, or women deacons. In fact I have heard liberals accuse Driscoll of being anti-women, because of his stand on women in leadership roles. In fact the exact quote was “he is worse than the Conservatives”.
As I stated earlier, I am not a fan of the Acts 29 network.
