Redefining Christianity: Understanding the Purpose Driven Life Movement

by Bob DeWaay

The author of this book examines The Purpose Driven Church, The Purpose Driven Life, and the business system that Rick Warren has developed to promote it around the world. He looks carefully at his claims, his use of scripture, his integration of human wisdom with scripture, and his ability to get thousands of pastors to convert from expository Bible preaching to being Purpose Driven. In the end he compares Rick Warren’s version of “church health” with that of Jesus Christ. The reader will see how Rick Warren has indeed redefined Christianity.

Clear analysis of the Purpose Driven movement and the seeker sensitive model that has caused so much division in the church. Obviously DeWaay disagrees with this model, but he is very fair in his criticisms and backs up his position scripturally
