Show #4 - Kip Rallies Portland - Part 2


This is the second half of Kip McKean's sermon to his "sold-out" group in the new Portland International Christian Church. The original sermon can be found here, entitled "God's Promised Presence", preached on Friday, October 10, 2008.

A good overview of the Restoration Movement can be found on Wikipedia. A full time line of events of discipling in the Churches of Christ from 1967 until today can be found on kipmckean.com. Kip leaves a lot out of details in both sets of time lines in order to advance his agenda.

Mike Patterson's comments at the very end of the program can be found on the London International Christian Church's web site under "Drinking the Cup of Campus Ministry". We're having a positive impact! I wish some of those who have stopped studying with or have left the "sold-out" campus ministry at Arizona State University would contact me (or go to the Delphi Forum) and tell me their stories.

Show #3 - Kip Rallies Portland - Part 1


It's time to go after the big dog! Kip McKean visited the new Portland International Christian Church and rallied the troops. There was too much material to cover in one show, so I'm going to split it into two parts. (Kind of like how Kip split the original Portland International Church of Christ.) The original sermon can be found here, entitled "God's Promised Presence", preached on Friday, October 10, 2008. And a word of warning: if you've never heard him preach or teach before, some parts are a little scary. (For extra credit, compare his speaking style with Mike Patterson and Kevin Holland. That's the toxic byproduct of hierarchical discipling!)

I'll have the second half of the sermon as another episode ready soon.
