This is a part of Saddleback Church's worship. I really wonder who is being worshipped here, plus what biblical basis do any of the lyrics have.
This blog is my personal blog. All views and articles expressed and written here are solely my own, and do not necessarily reflect the views of my church or denomination or anyone else. Most posts are written for my own personal edification, and are not written in response to any external situation, unless otherwise and explicitly stated. Nobody should be reading into them anything other than what is explicitly stated, unless otherwise confirmed by me in writing.

This is my blog, and in order to facilitate an edifying exchange, I have came up with various blog rules. Please do read them before commenting, as failure to abide by them would make your post liable to being unapproved for publication. Violation of any of the rules three or more times, or at the blog owner's judgment, would make one liable to be banned from posting unless the blog owner (me) is satisfied that such behavior would not occur again.
If that is not proof that Warren preaches a man-centered gospel, then I dont know what is. "Keep your faith" given the context of the song means, "keep your faith in your ability to keep on moving and climbing. It is not about trusting in Christ or the promise that "all things work together for good to those who love God for those who are called according to His purpose". It cannot mean that because they seem to believe that Christians are elected and predestined (to use my own language)to "great things" (i.e. they should be about accomplishing their own dreams) rather than to being conformed into the image of Christ for His glory.
