"The Rev. Rick Warren, pastor of Saddleback Church in Lake Forest and one of America's most influential Christian leaders, has embarked on an effort to heal divisions between evangelical Christians and Muslims by partnering with Southern California mosques and proposing a set of theological principles that includes acknowledging that Christians and Muslims worship the same God."

Rick Warren, Larry Olson, and Kent Hunter have drive-by DMins from Fuller Seminary. WELS Seminary Professors David Valleskey and Frost Bivens studied at Fuller - and denied it, and admitted it. |
From article:
Warren has faced criticism from some evangelicals for his outreach to Muslims. Late last year, he issued a statement flatly denying rumors that he promulgates what critics term "Chrislam," a merging of Islam and Christianity.
The "rumor is 100 percent false," Warren wrote at Pastors.com, a website he founded that provides practical advice to church leaders. "My life and ministry are built on the truth that Jesus is the only way, and our inerrant Bible is our only true authority."

GJ - Mrs. Ichabod and I stopped at Rick Warren's church, which we passed by accident on a business trip. We went inside and listened to Warren clown around a bit. The woman at the door did not want to let us in because it was a "paid-for conference."
Saddleback Community Church is a Babtist church, but they deny that in their congregation's name. Now they deny it in their rush to unify two opposing religions.
Thank you for the link, Joe Krohn.
