I have read Sookhdeo's long article. He rasies many good points and questions worth considering. I am in the 'pro-insider' camp. I can not speak for all who advocate this approach, though I am in reglar connection with about more than 20 such advocates. In response to Sookdheo's unsubstantiated claim that "many" orgnizations are not telling their churches and supporters what is "really going on" I would just say that everyone I know is being very transparent. I know there are likely examples to the contrary, but I and my colleagues at least would share with you the viewpoint that a lack of transparency is not pleasing to the Lord. It is important for discussions about these issues to be carried on in an environment of respect and prayer for each other...thank you for the offer to "IM" types to respond! Bless you...   Kevin Higgins Greetings!
