Denny Burk gives a great roundup, and the only thing I would add to what I’m about to paste from his post is that Jeremy Pierre is one of my favorite writers:
The following is from Denny’s post:

The most recent issue of The Journal for Biblical Manhood & Womanhoodis now available for download from CBMW.org. There are some important articles in here that you will want to note. I’ll post the table of contents below, but here are some of the highlights.
The Committee on Bible Translation (CBT) responded last summer to CBMW’s critical review of the 2011 NIV. In my editorial, I offer a point-by-point rejoinder to the CBT’s open letter. Timothy Paul Jones has an excellent article addressing the Pat Robertson flap and outlines the difference between a covenant and a contract. Kevin DeYoung offers three principles that should guide the way we conduct the gender debate. Bruce Ware reviews Thomas H. McCall’s book, Which Trinity? Whose Monotheism? Philosophical and Systematic Theologians on the Metaphysics of Trinitarian Theology, in which McCall argues that Bruce Ware’s view of the Trinity is outside of orthodoxy. In the review, Ware argues to the contrary that his understanding of the godhead is well within the bounds of orthodox Christianity.
There many other helpful articles and reviews in this issue, and you can get the free download here.

I had been thinking a lot about the loss of orthodoxy both in exegesis in the move to reinterpret Phil 2, and in the creeds in the eternal subordination of the son. I had also been noticing this fall the rapprochement between some evangelicals and the Mormons. Is there a permanent paradigm shift here?
