Coming out of a church that pretty much swallowed Warren's programs whole, I have to say that some (won't paint all with the brush) churches that buy his seeker-sensitive approach have never learned what it means to follow and rely upon the empowerment of the Holy Spirit; they're mainly looking for a good program, implemented through proven principles of organizational management.
Absolutely correct !!!! However I find myself still surprised to see those who should know better, sucked in. They defend it by believing "they" are saving souls.
