Many thanks, Pr Jackson, for clarifying the source in your post and for the compliment!! I appreciate both greatly.
As to Rick Warren's church, ugh. Glad that you went and glad that you and your wife left shortly thereafter.
I think a lot of mainstream Protestants are as taken in by Rick Warren as Lutherans are. Seems to be a decline in attendance coupled with the promise of growth. Many say, 'What's wrong with Rick Warren? He has sensible ideas'.
I enjoyed reading your blog posts. If I lived near Phoenix, I would attend a service at your church.
Thank you again for your prompt response to my email.
May God continue to bless you in your ministry.
Yours sincerely
Churchmouse

GJ - Here is my post, kelming his post.
This is his blog.
The latest WELS PR release thanks God and praises Him for decades of Hagedorn promoting the Church Growth Movement and its odious falsehoods. During that time--SP Schroeder forgot to mention--WELS declined rapidly. That must mean WELS thanks God for the Shrinkers shrinking the doctrine and the church. "Hagedorn also notes that the part-time nature of this call will allow him to complete some responsibilities for Home Missions and work with other outreach opportunities." So Hagedorn will still have his Fuller-stained fingers in the pie.
Church Mouse has already said more about Lutheran apostasy that WELS or the Little Sect or Missouri will ever admit.
