Topic One: On yesterday's program we asked if John Piper agrees with his upcoming conference speaker Rick Warren's promotion of mystic Richard Foster's books on his Saddleback website. I think we have our answer. Thanks to one of our sharp listeners, we were e-mailed a link to John Piper's Desiring God website where we found no less than three sermons and two of John Piper's books where he quotes Foster in a positive manner. In fact, in one sermon Piper tells you he is quoting from Foster's Celebration of Discipline book. Why would Piper commend this book with his positive comments and quotes by Richard Foster? Perhaps Piper needs to listen to yesterday's program where we detail the mysticism and pagan spirituality that is promoted in Foster's book, Celebration of Discipline. Topic Two: Four Christians are arrested for witnessing to Muslims at a Muslim festival in Dearborn, Michigan. One of the four is herself someone that converted from Islam to Christianity. Political Correctness is becoming law. Topic Three: Pro-family group says Obama's actions are suspending the power of Congress by mandating the Family and Medical Leave Act to homosexual couples. Topic Four: Hillary Clinton gives speech before U.S. State Department employees telling them to let teens know it is ok to be homosexual. The message of the day is Christians are evil and need to be arrested and silenced and homosexuals are to be celebrated, promoted, and encouraged. Topic Five: We take your calls.
