We’re All the Same… But Different
First, a little plug - I have a new favorite blog: Like a Warm Cup of Coffee. Sarah Mae tackles difficult subjects with grace and truth. She uses her blog as a platform for encouragement and exhortation. She keeps it personal; she writes about her own life. But it’s not all about her. You can tell her focus is reaching out to others.
(Some of my favorite posts: Overcoming Laziness, It’s Hard to Be a Stay-at-Home Mommy, Wife, & Homemaker, Soon and Very Soon, and I’m Not Only Not My Own, I’m Not My Own! [boy, do I need to take that last one to heart.])
Now, on to one of her most recent posts. It’s titled Joyce Meyer (uh-oh… controversy alert!). She writes,
“Popular.
Effective.
Engaging.
Missing the mark.“
…and quotes 1 Timothy 2:12 and 3:15, which say that women are not to teach or be in authority over men. I enjoyed the ensuing discussion. My favorite comment was by Courtney:
“C.H. Spurgeon said, ‘It’s mere cant to cry, “We are evangelical, we are all evangelical!” but decline to define what that is…’
Under the umbrella of ‘evangelical’ there is a vast array of bad theology presented. Addressing and defining our differences is important for the purity of the church.”
I love that. It encapsulates the importance of good theology. Not to cause divisions and quarrels, but because what we believe about God is so important.
I second that – love Sarah Mae. 
Thank you so much for putting the Redeemed button on your blog – that is an amazing connection that you know Gillian! Nothing is coincidence, so that’s exciting to me.
Looking forward to interacting with you more over the next couple of weeks.
I second the recommendation. She’s a voice for truth.
Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll check her blog out.
Thanks for letting us know about these…I love finding good blogs to add to my list, and I like your taste. 
Thank you for linking to me and for your kind words! Now I know who *you* are and look forward to getting to know you!
