Fuller repudiated inerrancy at the same time
they started the Church Growth Movement there.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for publishing the posts about Diaprax by Dean Gotcher. I have many of his booklets and had the privilege meeting him several years ago when attending one of his presentations re: the subject. He explains the "process" so well, that although it takes a bit of concentration, there is no mistaking how it works. Some researchers figured it out on their own through their own experiences with schools then their churches 40 years ago. Once the process is understood, there is no denying it has been in play in society at large, government, schools, and churches including WELS and others.
The dots can be connected if one is observant and intellectually honest. The disarray didn't just happen. Unsuspecting people trusted and were led astray. Once one knows something has gone awry, without understanding of the modus operandi and its terminology especially re:church, energy is consumed by concentrating on symptoms rather than the root cause of the how things have come to such disarray. A mistake is to assume (conclude) that the institutions have failed. Not so. The systems analysis process or Diaprax has systematically been employed to bring about the weakening if not destruction of the foundations themselves.
