It’s a sad sign of the times in this gelatinous generation that Apprising Ministries has to cover Word Faith wingnuts like trinitarian modalist T.D. Jakes in the context of mainstream evangelicalism. Yet, thanks to ecumenical evangelical magisterium members James MacDonald and Mark Driscoll at their Elephant Room 2 council, Jakes has now even found refuge within younger Reformed sectors. […]

The other day in Rick Warren on Oprah’s Lifeclass: “We’re All Intentionally Flawed To Make Us Unique” here at Apprising Ministries we gave you a peek at his appearance with Oprah last Sunday.
