Just had to point this out to you:
A Christian University, the McManus Brothers, Mysticism and the Emerging Church
Commentary Opinion
by Brannon Howse
Can you believe the sort of equivocating that this proponent of solid worldview thinking is committing?

Got something to say?
Christarchy! is a growing network of small groups for people who want to put the ethical teachings of Jesus into practice.
Submergent is a network of leaders who, embracing the Anabaptist impulse, are living into the Kingdom of God in a postmodern, post-colonial, post-Christian world. Together, we will re-baptize the Christian imagination!
Anchored in the West Bank neighborhood of Minneapolis, Missio Dei is committed to following Jesus' way of peace, simplicity, prayer, and hospitality.
The Missio Dei Breviary includes morning and evening prayers for one month. Edited (and freely shared) by Missio Dei, it draws primarily upon the Gospels, reflects Anabaptist convictions, and emphasizes missional commitment.
I went to one of these world-view weekends (in a former life) and even attended a related two-week long event in the mountains (also in a former life)…it is all coming back to me now…
How many people would it take to have the “largest WorldView Conference”? I get the feeling not many.
I think it’s widely open for discussion about who exactly is offering “counterfeit Christianity.”
Mark - Thanks for posting on that - I made a vague reference to extremes in my post on Sunday - check it out. JVD

That stinks…I guess some people are just close minded and stubborn. The funny thing isn’t that this is a “agree to disagree” thing as the guy claims. It is simply about misunderstanding and misinformation. This is the first time that I’ve ever hear someone say that mysticism in all forms is uniquivocally bad.
