"Its Not About You"....Well Maybe It is: Rick Warren Appreciation Day

2Co 4:2 but we have renounced the things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness or adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation of truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God....5  For we do not preach ourselves but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bond-servants for Jesus' sake

Thanks to Erin B at Do Not Be Surprised on this one:

THANKS to radio KKLA and KFSH for tons of kind notes from listeners on your RW Appreciation Day.I wept


This self-promotion and praise from the author of the "Purpose Driven Life" who claimed on p. 17 "Its not about you" and then wrote an entire book as well as dedicated that book to "you".

Yes, its about him. Warren's focus has been on on Warren. How many baptisms he's had at his church; how much he "reverse tithes", his books, his PEACE plan, his critics, his methodology, his superior love and tolerance, his good works, his Rick Warren Appreciation Day. Yes, it is all about him. What's missing? Something is missing. Dreadfully. Something that should be evident to all true Christians.

Sometimes a heretic is evident by what is being omitted.

Like the risen Lord Jesus Christ.
