I hadn't considered an evening keynote address, but I will bet you are on the money.

I hear more people concerned about his use of several scripture referrences from different Bible translations or versions.

Let's not forget the fact that he uses fragments of verses. We tend to forget that Chapters/Verses were put in Scripture by the Reformers as reference points. Warren wretches verses out of their context to make his point.

The Warren method of biblical interpretation is like taking a newspaper article, numbering the sentences and the looking at sentence 73 and thinking we understand what the writer had in mind.

Yep, as the article says:  "Warren tells each exactly what he believes they want to hear."
 
If he doesn't like what one translation / version says, he just reaches for another and patches it together in Warren-Speak.
 
He's a chameleon who leads because he wants followers.
