Not your father’s L’Abri
Here’s something quite interesting about the current moods in L’Abri. The Post-Schaeffer period seems to have left a certain consequence at L’Abri. This report was a little saddening to read actually, but had some interesting insights into what’s happening at the Swiss L’Abri. It seems that UK L’Abri is fairly different from Switzerland, but it’s …
