My previous tribute to David Scholer has become the most read post I have ever written; most of the visits are from those searching for “David Scholer” and variations. This in itself is a tribute to a man who left an enormous impact on the world.
Blog posts about him keep popping up. I would just like to mention a few notable locations:
- Biblioblogger Judy Redman encountered David’s teaching during one of his trips to Australia
- Mark provides several links to sermons, articles, and the like on his blog (he also has several thoughts on David’s legacy himself–David officiated at Mark’s wedding)
- The LA Times has their obituary up for David [One note: they mention homosexuality on there, but I don't recall ever hearing him talk about homosexuality. I don't know if that is a mistake on their part or if I just missed it.]
- Fuller has a tribute to his legacy up as well
- You may want to check out two of his writings of interest: an article on his journey with women and ministry (what he is so known for) and a sermon on his struggle with cancer.

I can comment briefly on David’s stance on homosexuality, which doctrinally is fairly traditional, but he’s very careful to say “you don’t really have the RIGHT to make strong comments on homosexuality until and unless you have befriended a homosexual Christian and gotten to know them personally.”

Oh, you know, I think I do remember him saying that. Thanks for the reminder, Mark. It is a good comment to keep in mind!
