Is YWAM Too Strong on Sin?
A recent article appeared in the Christian Post entitled, “YWAM Responds to Allegations of Spiritual Abuse: ‘Deeply Sorry.'”
It originated in England in the Observer–a British newspaper published on Sundays and sister paper to The Guardian. The article accused some U.K. YWAM leaders of being too “controlling” or involved in “spiritual abuse.”
YWAM quickly responded with an apology and explanation of our leadership values.
Youth With A Mission–one of the world’s largest Christian missionary organizations–has been accused of strong teaching on sin in the past. I know–because I’ve been one of the “accused.”
Is YWAM too strong on sin?
Naturally Sharing Your Faith
If there’s one major reason for the backslidden state of America or the nation in which you live, it’s believers failing to share their faith.
Lack of light (evangelism and discipleship) always leads to increasing darkness (sinful culture and lost souls).
Though I work with a global organization (YWAM) committed to completing the Great Commission and making disciples of all nations, I confess that I oftentimes don’t share my faith naturally with those I see every day.
And regularly God convicts me to share my faith so that others can be saved.
Here are some honest thoughts on naturally sharing your faith.
Thanking God for Loren Cunningham – June 30, 1935 – October 6, 2023
Yesterday was Shirley’s and my 47th wedding anniversary. I’m so grateful for the godly wife that God gave me in 1976.
This week my heart aches for the nation of Israel which was attacked by terrorists with great loss of life. I am praying for the peace of Jerusalem and justice for the Hamas murderers.
But today I want to honor YWAM founder Loren Cunningham who graduated to heaven early Friday morning, October 6, at the age of 88.
I thank God for Loren Cunningham.
