Letter to the Editor: Be Still DVD with Beth Moore Advocates “Urgent Need to Lower Your Breathing Rate”

August 11, 2020 by Letters to the Editor

Dear Lighthouse Trails: I bought and gave the Be Still DVD to my last pastor prior to moving out of state. My husband and I had become horrified at the Beth Moore’s women’s gatherings that were being promoted at our church.  I was already very familiar with Beth Moore’s stance on contemplative prayer.  This gentleman, … [Read more…]

Letter to the Editor: Southern Baptist Convention Leaders Taking SBC Far From Its Biblical Moorings

April 26, 2019 by Letters to the Editor 25 Comments

Dear Lighthouse Trails: As a Southern Baptist, I am concerned that powerful leaders in the Southern Baptist Convention are taking the denomination far from its biblical moorings. Bureaucracy within the organization is to blame, as are a few mega-church pastors who take turns filling decision-making posts whether elected or appointed. What can Southern Baptists do … [Read more…]

Kenneth Copeland Carries On Tony Palmer’s Crusade to End the Protestant Church

June 2, 2018 by Lighthouse Trails Editors 5 Comments

  As many readers may remember, in 2014 Word of Faith preacher Kenneth Copeland invited the Anglican priest Tony Palmer to speak to his congregation.* Palmer, who died in a motorcycle accident a few months later, was an “evangelist” for Pope Francis to convince leaders in the Protestant church that the reformation was over and … [Read more…]

What Christian Leaders Need to Know – The Final Outcome of Practicing Contemplative Prayer

April 17, 2018 by Lighthouse Trails author 2 Comments

LTRP Note: With the majority of Christian colleges and seminaries now bringing in contemplative spirituality via Spiritual Formation programs, and with Christian leaders such as Rick Warren and Beth Moore endorsing the movement, and with countless pastors giving it a thumbs up to their congregations, isn’t it time professors, pastors, and leaders understand what the … [Read more…]

Christian Leaders – A New Openness . . . to the Catholic Church

March 7, 2018 by Lighthouse Trails Editors 8 Comments

By Ray Yungen It is not just a fluke or an aberration that the evangelical churches and the Catholic Church are coming into alignment with each other. The Catholic Church is taking a softer approach to the evangelical church, and the evangelical church is starting to downplay the traditional and significant differences that have kept … [Read more…]

February 3, 2018 by Letters to the Editor 15 Comments

To Lighthouse Trails and readers: As I stood at the bedside of my dad in a hospital, in shock at his unexpected passing, I looked up at the wall, and there on the whiteboard was written, “Last rites- 2:00 pm.” I had spent two and a half months visiting daily in the hospital while my … [Read more…]

Revealing Quotes by Influential Contemplatives

October 14, 2017 by Lighthouse Trails Editors Leave a Comment

These revealing quotes are from well-known figures who have significantly influenced the religious landscape in today’s culture. Sadly, they have helped to mislead millions with their promotion of contemplative prayer (a mystical, panentheistic-rooted practice).

Letter to the Editor: Spiritual Formation at Bible Camp – Our Warnings Being Ignored

February 6, 2017 by Lighthouse Trails Editors

To Lighthouse Trails: I have been going to a non-denominational church for years, and last year I noticed the term “Spiritual Formation” being used in the website of the Bible camp this church sponsors.

Remembering the Enticing Appeal of Richard Foster and Beth Moore’s Be Still Film

November 18, 2016 by Lighthouse Trails Editors

In 2006, a DVD film was released by Fox Entertainment called Be Still. Lighthouse Trails wrote extensively about it at the time, warning our readers that the DVD was an infomercial for contemplative prayer. Recently, a caller who very much understood the deceptive dynamics of the contemplative prayer (i.e., Spiritual Formation) movement, reminded us about … [Read more…]

Brian Brodersen and Greg Laurie’s “Bigger Picture of Christianity”

July 8, 2016 by Lighthouse Trails Editors

As we observe evangelical Christianity being drawn toward “the Mother Church” of Roman Catholicism, it is amazing to see how very few Christian leaders speak up about this. On the contrary, one after the next, Christian leaders are succumbing to this ecumenical, interfaith last-days apostasy of merging evangelicalism into the Catholic fold. Lighthouse Trails has … [Read more…]

Letter to the Editor: Churches in Deception Covering Their Tracks and Targeting Women

March 23, 2016 by Lighthouse Trails Editors

 To Lighthouse Trails: Years ago when researching church-related  websites, I used to be able to detect quickly whether they were  linked to the apostasy network or not due to some association. That eliminated a lot of churches from my list  of places to check out. Well, just recently I noticed across the board that for … [Read more…]

Just the Beginning: Southern Baptist Convention Boots South Carolina Congregation for Affirming Homosexual Behavior

February 29, 2016 by Miscellaneous News Source

LTRP Note: As the Southern Baptist Convention continues turning a blind eye to contemplative mysticism, which has come into the church (including into SBC), we believe they are going to be doing more booting of churches accepting homosexuality in the future. When church members begin practicing contemplative prayer (going into the silence), as big-name SBC … [Read more…]

Letter to the Editor: Heartbroken in Leaving Her Southern Baptist Church Over Deception Issues

October 19, 2015 by Lighthouse Trails Editors

To Lighthouse Trails: Last December during our Church Council, they (pastor and his wife) announced that we would be studying The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren, and the Sunday School teachers would  be teaching it.  As one of the teachers, I said “No, I will not teach it.  I don’t believe in it.”  One … [Read more…]
