A reader of Apprising Ministries writes an email which illustrates more evangelical churches are just discovering a book by William Paul Young called The Shack. Pastor Larry DeBruyn brings out that Young is off-course even before he begins his writing:
Writing from the standpoint of being a one time “theological buddy” of Paul Young, author of The [...]

As this apostasy grows I have done my part. In the interest of saving time I present the following unsolicited email. If you are among the growing number who feel as the AM Critic below, then you now know what my response will be. Here I stand, the Lord’s will be done; no matter what, to the end…

An Apprising Ministries reader wrote in to share some thoughts we now publish with permission:
I’ve got to tell you I’ve gone to your website many times today to feel refreshed so to speak. I can’t help it, but I need to stop, reading all these Christian blogs about Obama’s win. I can’t tell you how [...]

The following email exchange concerns the lyrics of my song Missing You. As a pastor I chose to ask this reader of Apprising Ministries if I could use their letters below. And I’m going to present some of the following email exchange for a couple of reasons.

A reader of Apprising Ministries writes to ask for information and materials on refuting Rick Warren and The Purpose Driven Life:

I recently found out that a pastor I know is reading Rick Warren’s nonsense. I know him well enough to know that: A) He is truly saved, and B) He would not listen to [...]

The following is based on an unsolicited email I received here at Apprising Ministries. Please understand that I do not think any pastor-teacher is above reproach [insert typical Emerging Church whining here], etc.
What I wish to bring out is how easy, and I’ll argue how arrogant as well, it is for people to simply disregard [...]
