I ran across this site (posted by a Facebook friend whom I'm concerned is going down a legalistic road :( ).
f amilylife.com
It has articles by Tim Kimmel and Voddie Baucham on the same site and some articles aren't just pro-spanking, they discuss it as if it's a biblical requirement.
I know God can use this site for good, but is the general strategy Kimmel's using of going alongside pro-spankers without directly speaking against it going to have a positive influence on the Church or not? At least one writer on the site makes no bones about speaking against non-spanking. Pro-spankers use grace-related talk in select situations as well. It seems like Kimmel coming alongside them doesn't add that message, but could add to the acceptance of the dissonance of presenting the opposing ways simultaneously.
