Last Friday, in my blog post Are the Mormons on to Something? I linked to a Gospel Coalition article on why Mormons are beating evangelicals in church growth.

I might add that Mormons, along with southerners, have yet another strength we might add to the list.

Philanthropy ranks the generosity of America’s 366 major metropolitan areas.

Doug Minson points out that there is “not one city outside of the South or areas of high Mormon population until #92.”
