“A closer examination of the general philosophy of the Willow Creek organization, however, poses a dilemma for (our church) and brings into question whether it is in the best interest of (our church) to continue to be under the tutelage of the WCA, its leadership and its resources. After weeks of personal research into the Willow Creek phenomena, I have discovered that the organization is subtly embracing a worldly, humanistic viewpoint in order to succeed in their evangelistic mission. This pragmatic evangelism has admittedly brought them success, but it has come at a cost to their solid Christian position.”
“One of the most damaging aspects of this Willow Creek pragmatism is their association and promotion of several “Christian” leaders and experts that are espousing unbiblical teachings. Not only is Bill Hybels a supporter and friend to some of these people, but the Willow Creek establishment is actively promoting their books and ideas throughout their system. Shockingly, Willow Creek is seemingly unconcerned about associating with people who openly promote Eastern mysticism, humanistic psychology, and radical ecumenism.”
