10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

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

Orthodox on paper; 2024 pro-egalitarian sermon and Unconditional fallout raise downstream concerns.

Caution

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

Verify inerrancy stance.

Caution

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

Verify men's ministry.

Caution

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

Verify faith-alone soteriology.

Caution

Gender / Biblical Design

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

Disqualifier

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

Verify Great Commission focus.

Caution

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

2023 Unconditional Conference hosted speakers in same-sex relationships; Andy Stanley publicly taught that chastity 'is not sustainable' for many same-sex-attracted persons, per Julie Roys/Christianity Today reporting.

Disqualifier

Accountability Structure

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