In my further investigations of neo-fundamentalism, I am coming to see how narrow it is, and which demons it is chasing. Chief of these is "contemplative prayer." It seems that promoting such evils is one of Rick Warren’s chief mistakes, and neofundies continue show their mistrust for anything but intellectual meditation. I’m not much for chanting or focusing on a word to enter an altered state, but yoga and mindful meditation are fantastic tools. The NFs seem to hate guys like Dallas Willard, too, who has written about spiritual formation. I’ll report back with more soon.
If you are not a Christian, you should understand the basics of the message. These two videos are short, enjoyable, and helpful. Please watch them.
