Questions and Responses

Question: You have promoted books by A.W. Tozer, yet Tozer constantly quoted from Catholic mystics...

Question: Are you familiar with Randy Frazee [co-editor Max Lucado] and his book called The Story? Our church is promoting it for small group study and I have a few concerns. Would appreciate any information you may have.

Question: I recently heard the term "progressive Christian" in conjunction with some controversial speakers.... I'm not familiar with the term or the controversy surrounding the speakers. What can you tell me?

Question: I have heard of a number of churches that are giving copies of Rocky Fleming's The Prayer Cottage...

Question: A dear friend of mine, on fire for Jesus, is following John Crowder. I’m concerned about the wording of his ministry. His teachings are called “mystical school.” I just wonder if you know about him and what you think.

Question: In Wide Is the Gate…T. A. McMahon states: “in trying to solve the problems, fix the world, many Christians don’t realize that they’re actually going to be helping the Antichrist develop his kingdom.” My friends were disturbed by this statement.

Question: I was shocked by [Brennan Manning's book] The Signature of Jesus. My impression is that he is a Catholic mystic in evangelical “wool.” Is he trying to pull that wool over our eyes or what?

Question: I recently read some of St. John of the Cross, Dark Night of the Soul. That night I had bad dreams and was troubled in spirit.... Am I imagining it, or is this work counter-Christian?

Question: Could you please explain briefly some of the teachings of Kingdom/Dominion...

Question [composite of several]: I was disturbed and confused as to what your purpose is for advancing Mark Dinsmore's particular ideas on "Christian patriotism." What if our forefathers had taken this pacifist attitude when we arrived in the New World?
