Thabiti Reflects on #TheElephantRoom

In the immediate aftermath of ER2, a wise older brother counseled me to avoid the inevitable flurry of blog activity for at least a week. That was really wise advice and I’ve taken a tad bit longer because I’m a tad bit slower than most. One benefit of the advice given was that it allowed a lot of the early reactions (pro and con) to come and go. That was useful simply for getting some perspective and not getting caught up in heat rather than light. As time wore on, more light began to shine through as godly people on both “sides” of the issue joined in with helpful thoughts. I’ve particularly appreciated the balanced and insightful piece Carson and Keller offered late last week. If you haven’t read it, you should. And if you have read it, you’ll probably want to read it slowly a few times. I certainly did.

Reading and re-reading Carson and Keller, as well as a number of other post-game reports, left me with a few reflections, for what it’s worth.
