Brethren,
This really grieves me: http://www.church.fi/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=93&Itemid=8
Mind you, this is an international congregation based in Helsinki, Finland. The pastor's native tongue is obviously Finnish, but this group is done in English.
I know that it does not go outright and make mention of Rick Warren's heresy, but the allusion is there. It bears all the hallmarks.
Don't get me wrong. I admire that they desire to witness to those around them. However, going through this 40 Days of Purpose is not the way to do it as we all well know.
When I started writing this, I put it under the current forum. However, as I progressed in writing this, I also contemplated whether it should go in the Prayer forum. Then again, I'm not so sure. I don't know any of these people personally.
(Long story short: I've had an on-again, off-again fascination with Finland and it's people throughout my life. I'd heard all the reports that the church in Europe is, for the most part, dead. However, I got a bit excited when I found out that there were supposedly bonafide Christians in Finland. I would just hate to see them get caught up in something that wrongly divides the Word of Truth.)
(and yet not enough)
