FROM BAD TO SO MUCH WORSE
see: ACSI (Association of Christian Schools) Recommends Brian McLaren and Defends Mysticism Source: Lighthouse Trails (must read article)
On January 28th, Lighthouse Trails reported that ACSI (Association of Christian Schools) has begun to promote contemplative spirituality through their Spiritual Formation program, in which contemplative books are being recommended and offered to ACSI members. In addition, ACSI is telling attendees of the Early Education Conference on April 19, 2008 to read Henri Nouwen's book, In the Name of Jesus for preparation for the conference.1 (p. 3) Now, we are sorry to report that ACSI is recommending to its 5300 member schools Brian McLaren's A New Kind of Christian. McLaren, who has made many public statements that attempt to derail biblical Christianity, is part of the emerging church movement.
In addition to the McLaren recommendation, ACSI president Ken Smitherman speaks favorably of emerging leader and mysticism proponent Rob Bell's book, Velvet Elvis. Bell shows in that book his propensity toward the New Age by calling Ken Wilber's book, A Brief History of Everything , "mindblowing," telling readers to spend three months studying it. 2
----------------------------------------
This is a critically important development for anybody in anyway connected with the ACSI. This includes not only students and parents, but teachers, administrators, and churches that have ACSI accredited schools. That the ACSI system has been completely taken over by the "emerging church" could not be anymore clear than is seen here. The emerging church materials are being promoted to all member schools by no less than the president of the organization himself.
Unfortunately, it appears that the time has come to start looking for the door. Your schools have been betrayed into the hands of the enemy!
Protect yourselves (teachers, etc.) and your children (parents, etc.). Get informed, learn what these men, e.g. McLaren, Bell, who are openly denying the very core tenants of Christianity, are spewing out into the ever-growing apostate/"emerging conversation" designed to deconstruct biblical Christianity and subjugate it into the global management system that is rising up on every side.

For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. Jude 4
