Uri Brito: I drink because I am a Christian!

The Associated Baptist Press writes that there are a number of Baptists wanting to return to wine for the Lord’s Supper. The entire debate is rather interesting and provides a rather sharp turn in the broader baptist culture in America. This article led to a piece by James Rogers at First Things who wrote about his daughter’s response:

“This brought to mind my daughter’s comment of a few months ago at a small dinner we hosted. We were chatting with our guests about some wines we liked. At one point Megan said, “I don’t like alcohol. I only drink because I’m a Christian.”

Here is an old piece I wrote with a Lutheran Minister a few years ago on this matter.
