Christian Research Network is a sister work of Apprising Ministries. Sadly, The Alpha Course (TAC) is making a comeback. CRN associate editor Erin Benziger told us earlier that The Alpha Course Receives Praise From Moody Radio’s Janet Parshall. Based upon a speaker at an upcoming Desiring God conference, who literally teaches TAC at his church, I wondered: John Piper Approves Of The Alpha […]

As one in an online apologetics and discernment ministry (OADM) a large part of my job at Apprising Ministries is to monitor false teaching slithering into the visible church and to then apprise other pastors, who don’t have the time I do to track this skubalon, as to what it is. There’s a common misconception concerning this […]

In Means Of Grace: Searching The Scriptures the other day here at Apprising Ministries reminded you about the spread of what I call a cult of Foster-Willardism deep within mainstream Protestant evangelicalism; and with it, a rebirth of Pietism masquerading as the Spritiual Formation. A good four years ago in Spiritual Formation: Just Say No I warned that, with an assist from his spiritual twin Dallas […]

As we watch the mainstream of the church visible descend further into apostasy lusting after the world, its true love, Bible-believing Christians are being attacked for taking the text of Genesis 1-11 for what it says. Even in ostensibly conservative circles we’re told we must abandon this way of reading Scripture because of science aka the […]

Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, while evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. (2 Timothy 3:12-13) Christian Soldiers Standing Up For Jesus? In many of our local fellowships on a given Sunday we could hear a congregation […]

At the same time, all email sent to AM and Christian Research Network is considered the property of Apprising Ministries so we may indeed publish unsolicited email for the purposes of edification. Such is […]

Apprising Ministries now draws your attention to The Three Deadliest Words In The World… It’s A Girl, a documentary film by Evan Grae Davis. Freelance political journalist Ram Mashru, the founder and editor of the online political magazine Discuss[n], gives us background: It’s a girl, a film being released this year, documents the practice of killing unwanted baby girls […]

You may have noticed Apprising Ministries running some satire pieces from our special Nephilim correspondent Nephy Lim, e.g. New Transmission From Nephilim Correspondent Criticizes C. Peter Wagner. Then there was Shocking: Apprising Ministries Receives A Postcard From Nephilim!, which contains the following reference in the postcard from Nephy: Notice the date: 12-21-12. There’s a couple of basic reasons […]

Apprising Ministries continues to warn that the mainstream of evangelicalism is spiraling badly into what I’m calling a New Downgrade No-Controversy. Certainly a part of this is increasing syncretism e.g. embracing blatant Word Faith prosperity preachers like T.D. Jakes. I’ve also told you that popular evangelicals such as prophet-leader Steven Furtick cannot bring Jakes into the […]

By Pastor Larry DeBruyn of Guarding His Flock Ministries, republished here with permission: The “Conversion” of a Skeptic? “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and […]
