Nuggets from Occult Invasion

Bill Hybels, who was mentored by Robert Schuller, “is leading a worldwide movement. Attending a recent Willow Creek training conference…were over 2,300 church leaders from Australia, the Bahamas, Canada, England, Holland…India, Japan, Korea…Norway, Scotland, Sweden, the United States….[and elsewhere]…. Willow Creek…[with] more than two hundred seventy full and part-time staff members…is currently shaping how church is ‘done’ for thousands of churches.” Schuller has said:

“I was the first person to introduce real church growth to the American Church…. He [Hybels] became the first guy to take these principles, refine them, maximize them to the ultimate length of their potential…. I am so proud of him…. I think of him as a son. I think of him as one of the greatest things to happen in Christianity in our time…. Bill Hybels is doing the best job of anybody I know!”
