A main function of the online apologetics and discernment work here at Apprising Ministries is to alert you to developing trends within the visible church. In that regard you may recall the recent post The Coalescing Of The Christian Right With Apostolic Dominionism, which was built around an in-depth and well-researched article at Herescope from my friend Dr. Orrel […]

FRANK VIOLA AND CORRUPT CONTEMPLATIVE SPIRITUALITY/MYSTICISM »

Apprising Ministries continues documenting the growing influence of Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism (CSM) right into the timid heart of the squishy evanjellyfish pretending to be Protestant community. I’ve told you that the main catalyst for this spiritual skubalon is the Living Spiritual Teacher and Quaker mystic Richard Foster along with his spiritual twin, Southern Baptist minister Dallas Willard; both of whom teach the same spurious spirituality, which they’ve […]
