You may have heard of Doug Wilson.But do you know what he teaches?
Living in Doug Wilson’s hometown of Moscow, Idaho, we have experienced this controversial pastor’s influence up close—among both his ardent followers and those wounded by his ministry. As the evidence of Wilson’s harmful impact continued through the years, we wondered if the problem was rooted in his theology. That question led us beyond observing the effects of his ministry to examining his teaching in light of God’s Word. This blog is the result of that study.
The Bereans were called noble for testing an apostle’s words against Scripture (Acts 17:11). No one is above examination. Whether you’ve never heard of Doug Wilson or have benefited from his teaching, read these articles and judge for yourself. Is Wilson a teacher to be esteemed or one to be marked and avoided?
