RICK WARREN: “EVERY FACET OF CHRISTIANITY — INCLUDING CATHOLICISM”

How does Rick Warren's theology line up with Roman Catholicism?
Pastor Ken Silva from Apprising Ministries gets it straight from the source:
As one who is myself a former Roman Catholic, whom the Lord graciously delivered from the religious bondage of apostate Roman Catholicism into the glorious liberty of the sons of God, I ask you to consider: Is the following really in line with the Southern Baptist Convention and Protestant evangelicalism?

“The small group structure is the structure of renewal in every facet of Christianity — including Catholicism.” -Rick Warren, (Pew Forum)

“Now I don’t agree with everything in everybody’s denomination, including my own. I don’t agree with everything that Catholics do or Pentecostals do, but what binds us together is so much stronger than what divides us,” he said. “I really do feel that these people are brothers and sisters in God's family. I am looking to build bridges with the Orthodox Church, looking to build bridges with the Catholic Church,....”- Rick Warren, (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette)

“The Church, in all its expressions—Catholic, Evangelical, Pentecostal, Protestant and many others—has 2.3 billion followers.” -Rick Warren, (Forbes)
