This is one of those thoughts that I thought a good while ago and then when I went to write it out I totally lost my train of thought. So, it's sat as an idea for over 7 months.
Then I began to have a conversation with my brother about his disdain for the cult of personality around Mark Driscoll and the theology being taught in a local Acts29 church plant. Maybe disdain is too strong a word, but he does have an aversion to it if only out of frustration. I'll admit I agree with him on a lot of his frustrations, but that's not the point of this post.
The point is the "counter-cultureness" or "otherness" of Scripture.
