Iron Sharpens Iron: Phil Johnson: The John Piper-Rick Warren Controversy: A Balanced Response

I hadn't even heard that John Piper had invited Rick Warren to a conference. I think the controversy is overblown. I think the charge that may be Warren could be more gospel centered instead of being more attractive to people but I don't see how he is preaching error. He has been charged with teaching people to care more about their purpose and getting what they want but I read Purpose-Driven Life and that simply isn't true. The book presented the Gospel and taught that it's only in god can you find your purpose and that purpose is ultimately to glorify God...not you. We all accomplish this goal in different ways. Could Warren been more "hellfire and brimstone"? Yes. But then it wouldn't be a "best-seller". Give a listen to the discussion it was very interesting.
