DrMSH Community is made possible by MIQLAT, a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation that seeks to be a refuge for Christians looking for serious biblical content and like-minded believers committed to being the Church. It seeks to be part of a solution to specific problems in the modern Christian experience, such as: Scarcity of academic-but-accessible biblical-theological content in church; Filtering the biblical text through denominational preferences and tradition; Discouraging questions and approaches to Scripture that foster clear thinking about modern challenges to a biblical worldview; Creating congregations of spectators conditioned to think of church as a time, a place, and the gatekeeper for worship and ministry.
