Mouw on evangelicalism

Richard Mouw, president of Fuller Theological Seminary, is interviewed in the LA Times on what it means to be an evangelical. Nothing really new there, but he does highlight a kind of “broad tent” evangelicalism that seems to be gaining more notice.

I read Mouw’s Calvinism in the Las Vegas Airport and He Shines in All That’s Fair. The first is a remarkably gentle and irenic commendation of Calvinism, and the latter explores the Calvinist concept of common grace. Both were very enjoyable and worthy reads, though Mouw didn’t make a Calvinist out of me. (Sorry, Dan!)
