Apprising Ministries has been among the online apologetics and discernment ministries covering Piper-Warrengate.

The online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries, which extends as an outreach of the local church where I’m pastor—SBC (for now)—has long been critical of the Purpose Driven Pope Rick Warren.
