The resolution is posted on their front web page with little additional comment, only the historical context.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.auburnavenue.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Auburn Avenue Church<\/a>, where Steve Wilkins is the senior pastor, has echoed the resolution on their home page.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of that, and the brief echo or mention on several blogs, the web has been pretty quiet on this.&nbsp; I guess others join me in seeing this as an expected step in the larger drama that is playing out and the tension will increase this month when the SJC meets to consider Louisiana&#8217;s response to their earlier decision.<\/p>\n<p>Now, this is not to say that the blogosphere is quiet about Federal Vision Theology.&nbsp; The conversations, analysis and criticism and response continues full tilt out here.&nbsp; Rev.
