I don't do a lot of endorsements these days but I wish to commend the following website to readers – Deo Vicit Mundum. The site is run by Joshua Immanuel, a dear brother in the Lord who has been an encouragement to me. Based in the larger Atlanta area he (like so many of us) has struggled to find a solid Biblically-based church and as such he's putting out an appeal – one that I'm forwarding to my readers with the hope that maybe someone else is in the area or familiar with it and can contact him with a recommendation.
Or, perhaps someone in the area will be interested in
starting something new – which at this point is probably the more realistic
path. He is quite keen on this and flexible in terms of working with other
believers. He's not looking for perfect agreement but for those who are of like
mind and more or less on the same wavelength.
Here's his contact info – his email, and the web address.

Readers will appreciate what he (and I believe some others
with him) are looking for –
1. Biblicism
2. The Five Solas of the Reformation
3. The Sovereignty of God in Salvation
4. Elder ruled congregationalism
5. Strict Regulative Principle worship
6. Credobaptism
7. Emphasis on the supernatural – Divine Council worldview
8. Radical 2K – Pilgrim Mindset – rejection of the nations,
nationalism and patriotism
9. Community while respecting private property
10. Amillennialism with an emphasis on increased lawlessness
and imminent return of Christ
11. Permanence of marriage and the rejection of divorce
Obviously there's a lot of overlap with what Joshua is
advocating and what I've been arguing for on these websites. I certainly hope
and pray he can get something going in that area. Please contact him and when
you think of it – pray for his situation and the state of the Church in the
Atlanta area.
