The Daniel Plan.
Rick Warren’s Daniel Plan has begun and Jennifer Pekich was there for its inception. Her report from inside the lion’s den (pun intended) can be found here. Here’s a quote from her article: Following Dr. Hyman’s talk my best friend … Continue reading

Hinn defends Hinn.
Benny Hinn attempts to defend himself . . . he doesn’t do such a good job. From Justin Taylor: Just in case you need a refresher on the numbers, here’s some of what they found on an expense report: cost … Continue reading

Would that we could see the wall of separation between the church and the world made broader and stronger. It makes one sad to hear Christians saying, “Well, there is no harm in this; there is no harm in that”, … Continue reading
Perry Noble’s message from AC/DC Sunday
Well, I went and did it. I took the plunge and listened to Perry Noble’s message from this past AC/DC Resurrection Sunday. Nah, I wasn’t surprised. Just the kind of ear-ticklingly good pop-psychology pep-talk I expected. With a little bit … Continue reading

Where have we seen this before?
The second video below looks strikingly similar to the second video in this post. I guess what works at one mile-wide, inch-deep, entertainment-driven “church” to herd goats, must work at another. So what could be worse than kidnapping the Easter … Continue reading

Campus Crusade’s “Four Spiritual Laws” . . . . give a diluted presentation of the gospel designed [to] be non-offensive. Who could fail to be attracted to, “God loves you and offers a wonderful plan for your life.”? It is … Continue reading
