Absolutely incredible but not out of character for Pastor Warren. I suppose since Rawanda isn't going as well as planned he needs to move on.

My comment to the author:

Graham said at the time of his historic Russia visit, "They're using me; I'm using them". We can critique whether he allowed himself to be used too much or not, but he had an understanding of advancing the Gospel that this author lacks. Who can forget the subsequent fall of the USSR, and astonishing articles in CT such as "Praying with the KGB"?

Nor does it matter that plump NK children will not be Warren's hearers. If it's just the Communist Party apparatchik, God can use that too.

Truth is, we don't know what good may or may not come out of this trip. But from this distance, it seems to me that the potential up side far outweighs the downside.

In fact, it's likely that the major part of the downside will be harsh criticism from Christian observers.

If he preaches a sound gospel message, souls may be saved.

It's far more likely that he's just being used as a propaganda stooge by the Korean commies so they can make appeals to liberal U.S. churches (World Council of Churches).
