Among the issues Apprising Ministriescovers is how even the heretical Word Faith movement continues heading toward acceptance within the mainstream of evangelicalism. Unfortunately, as apostasy spreads like an Oklahoma wild fire, with timid leaders scared of their own spiritual shadows, we now find ourselves in a nauseating New Downgrade No-Controversy.
