						Christian Research Network is a sister work of Apprising Ministries. You may remember that last year I covered Passion 2012 Beth Moore, John Piper, Louis Giglio Et Al Practice Lectio-Divina-Lite Superstition.

						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.

						Apprising Ministries has been warning you for a while now that Seeker Driven prophet-leader Steven Furtick Grows In Stature And Closer To The Word Faith Movement. Sadly, his Elevation Church (EC) is one of the more influential churches in the mainstream of the evangelical community and Steven Furtick himself is actually a sought-after speaker. Furtick’s shtick is marrying Seeker […]

What makes its appearance unique today, is the fact that it appears to be accepted and given doctrinal status by certain members of the historically orthodox faith.

						As the Lord would will Apprising Ministries emerged as a leading critic of Rob Bell, former rock star icon of the Emerging Church. In fact, back in 2008 I would end up writing Rob Bell And Christian Universalism. Therein I began to show you that Rob Bell was already leaning toward, as well as beginning to teach, a form of […]

						Apprising Ministries has long been one of the leading works exposing the neoliberal cult operating within the Emerging Church aka the Emergent Church and its evil effects upon evangelicalism. One of the EC’s first major assaults upon the foundations of proper Biblical Christianity was marshaled by Living Spiritual Teacher and EC guru Brian McLaren with his infamous book A Generous […]

						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. In the clip I used we see Rick Warren, whom Oprah aptly refers to as “America’s most powerful religious leader,” share a lesson of human […]
