I am waiting for a scholarly review of the concept of "deputy authority." This bad concept alone, carried out in practice, has done more to destroy the LC's than any other, and create one of the nastiest of denominations.

Touche! This is the bad concept that helped keep me toeing the party line longer than otherwise would have been the case. Happily, I am a natural born contrarian, so even deputy authority couldn't hold me down.
The next year or so will be very interesting as far as the Midwest goes. Sooner or later the uneasy truce regarding the shared heritage of Lee and the LCs will be broken, and with it may go the fellowship of churches we refer to as the GLA.
