RICK WARREN TEACHING THE LAW OF ATTRACTION?

From Pastor Ken Silva at Appising Ministries:

"In Dr. Laverne Adams And Rick Warren Driven By Destiny, which featured a post by Apprising Ministries correspondent Christine Pack of Sola Sisters, she told us that “‘America’s Pastor’ has written the foreword to a new book” by “Life Coach” and pastrix Dr. LaVerne Adams aka the “Divine Destiny Doctor”:

“DON’T WAIT FOR FATE TO JUST HAPPEN TO YOU! THIS COULD BE FATAL! MAKE A DESTINY DECISION TO ADVANCE TOWARD MAKING YOUR DESTINY DREAM YOUR CURRENT REALITY! CONTACT ME TODAY! I CAN HELP YOU GET STARTED ON THE JOURNEY OF LIVING THE LIFE OF YOUR DREAMS!”Dr. LaVerne Adams (Online source, caps in original)

Um, what; exactly where does the Christian find “fate” in the scheme of the absolute sovereignty of the one true and living God of the Bible? Answer: We don’t. Pack also points out:

“With her new book “Driven by Destiny”, Dr. LaVerne Adams reveals 12 secret keys that inspire readers to overcome feelings of confusion and frustration while navigating their own unique destiny roadmap… In addition to being unbiblical, this kind of positive self-talk in Dr. Adams’ book also comes very close to being New Age/Integral Spirituality thought, which is not Christian at all. When I was in the New Age back in the 90s, this thinking was dubbed “New Thought.”

...Rather curious in the first place that Southern Baptist pretending to be Protestant Purpose Driven Pope Rick Warren would help promote the work of a woman pastrix who’s in violation of God’s Word. Even more interesting considering that in his defense of his dubious decision to invite Warren to the Desiring God Conference 2010 as the keynote speaker Dr. John Piper said of his conversation with Warren..."
