10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

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

PCA confessional standard — Westminster Confession and Catechisms affirm Nicene Trinitarian Christology.

Strong

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

PCA Book of Church Order requires affirmation of inerrancy (Chicago Statement-adjacent).

Strong

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

Not surfaced on fetched pages.

Caution

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

Westminster sola fide, penal substitution, justification by grace through faith — standard for PCA.

Strong

Gender / Biblical Design

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

PCA ordains only men to teaching/ruling elder offices — complementarian denominational standard. Local roster not surfaced but bound by PCA BCO.

Caution

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

PCA elder-plurality session governance; presbytery accountability above session.

Strong

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

PCA norm is expository/redemptive-historical preaching.

Strong

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

'Wholeness to the city' urban-mission framing; gospel-centered within Reformed framework.

Strong

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

Pastor signed the 2020 Warhurst Protest (PCA Hall of Infamy — defended a Revoice-friendly pastor against discipline). Cultural drift marker — downgrade to YELLOW with cultural=red per drift-watch protocol.

WARNING!

Accountability Structure

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

PCA — confessional Reformed denomination per rubric green tier. | YELLOW: PCA pastor on Warhurst Protest list — see warhornmedia.com and savethepca.com. Roughly 8–16% of PCA pastors are reported to skirt the BCO around feminism, CRT, and Kellerite missiology.

Caution

Assessment

Enrichment Notes

PCA affiliation governs green rating. Flagged yellow on cultural because 'wholeness to the city' phrasing can correlate with PCA urban-plant Revoice-adjacent trajectories — worth a follow-up check on their apologetic content.
