This is how disturbed a real shepherd makes the sheep of his flock:
The LORD is my shepherd,
I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
He restores my soul;
He guides me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You have anointed my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
I would wonder if Rev. Warren shouldnt go back to his roots. Rethink his relationship with Jesus. Seems that his ego has overcome his relationship with our God.

***The HIV/AIDS initiative at Saddleback is a key part of Rick Warrens P.E.A.C.E. plan, a humanitarian strategy launched three years ago. The goal of the worldwide effort is to mobilize one billion church members to Promote reconciliation, Equip servant leaders, Assist the poor, Care for the sick and Educate the next generation. ***
And where is: Follow God’s word, Abstain from Sex until Married, Abstain from extra-curricular sex after marriage, and so on?

Well, then-I can hardly wait for Saddleback Churchs flu summit!
I'm sure the moneychangers in the temple felt respected.
OH, . . ..the PROFUNDITY ! !
Church. World. It seems the line has been completely obliterated.
“The third annual Global Summit on AIDS and the Church has attracted about 1,000 people to the southern California megachurch to learn how churches and individuals can help fight the deadly killer.”
Hmm...here’s my tip(s). Don’t shoot drugs in your arm and don’t share those needles. Don’t have vaginal or anal sex out of wedlock.
That should cover a vat majority of all AIDS cases in America. The other minority of cases are various things that are not related to these two things.
My reaction is that it all depends on what the church is saying to folks with AIDS. If the church is saying to folks with AIDS that they can turn from their sin(s) and be reconciled to God thru Jesus Christ and that the church will welcome all repentent sinner then that’s great. If on he other hand the church is simply going do a Jesusfied version of “I’m OK you’re OK” then the church is really not different at all from the message of the world.
