Worrying signs....

I have not commented on the sorry state of affairs that is the Ted Haggard saga (and I don't plan to anyway), but with his departure, it seems that his replacement at the head of the NAE (National Association of Evangelicals), Leith Anderson, is a promoter of contemplative spirituality and its infiltration into the evangelical churches, as the Lighthouse blog has shown. Worrying indeed. Guess it wouldn't be too long before I reject the 'Evangelical' label...

  1. contemplative spirituality movement certainly seems dubious.. but isnt there some form of biblical contemplative prayer that can be used to wait on the lord and hear from him? *shrug*

    eh... if you are talking about Ps. 46:10, then yes, there is a biblical "contemplative spirituality". However, that is not what the term means as it is used by its adherents.
