Coarse Language in the Pulpit

-------

Last week at the Shepherd's Conference, Phil Johnson spoke to the issue of the growing "tendency of so many pastors lately to employ profanity, crude and obscene words, vile subject matter, carnal topics, graphic sexual imagery, erotic language, and filthy jokes." I've said this before, but what shocks me the most is that there is even a NEED to give a message like this! But, this is the day in which we live. For those interested, I would commend Phil's message to you. You can download and listen to the MP3 HERE, and transcripts are in the process of being posted as well (Part 1, Part 2).

Additionally, Phil has begun to respond to criticism and questions he has received over the message HERE.
