10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

Is Jesus the only way? (John 14:6)

PCA subscribes to Westminster Confession — Trinitarian Nicene orthodoxy.

Strong

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

Westminster Confession Chapter 1 — inerrancy and sole authority of Scripture.

Strong

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

RUF student discipleship pipeline is core to its ministry model.

Strong

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

Westminster sola fide; Reformed soteriology.

Strong

Gender / Biblical Design

Biblical manhood and womanhood by God's design — patriarchal, complementarian, egalitarian, or affirming gender ideology?

PCA requires male-only ordination per Westminster Standards and BCO; complementarian.

PCA complementarian — male teaching/ruling elders per Westminster Standards + Book of Church Order.

Strong

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

RUF is led by an ordained PCA TE (Kevin Twit); male leadership.

Strong

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

Reformed expository teaching is RUF / PCA norm.

Strong

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

Campus ministry to Belmont University students; Indelible Grace hymn-renewal cultural footprint nationally.

Strong

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

RED — current campus minister signed the 2020 Warhurst Protest (Kevin Twit per warhornmedia.com PCA hall of infamy list). Signing the Warhurst Protest signals soft posture toward the Revoice-camp on sexuality and identity. Twit's Indelible Grace music ministry has shaped a generation of Reformed worship and overlaps significantly with the Keller / Redeemer-network cultural cohort that produced the Warhurst signer roster. Watch-item.

Caution

Accountability Structure

Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?

PCA polity provides session/presbytery/GA accountability via Nashville Presbytery oversight of the RUF chapter.

Strong

Assessment

Belmont RUF is a Reformed University Fellowship chapter — the PCA's official campus ministry — at Belmont University in Nashville, led by Rev. Kevin Twit since 1995. Twit signed the 2020 Warhurst Protest. RUF chapters are not standalone congregations; they operate under PCA presbytery oversight. Doctrinal scores green per Westminster Confession; cultural score yellow as discernment flag. Twit's broader Indelible Grace hymn-renewal ministry has shaped Reformed worship culture for two-plus decades and overlaps with the Keller-network cohort that produced the Warhurst roster.
