What Christian Leaders are saying about Eric’s teaching and the Purpose Driven mess!

“Eric is right! God wants a people filled with power…not a church filled with people!”
– Pastor Brian, Washington

“Eric Barger understands that if I have purpose without power my purpose is worthless!”
– Pastor Phil, Arkansas

“As I’ve traveled the world the last two years in ministers’ conferences, I’ve seen the havoc which that ministry (Rick Warren’s) has caused…It (the Purpose Driven Church philosophy) simply does not work. I'm not about to put up a silly skit and preach a 15-minute message on 'how to cope' to a multitude of people who are dying and going to hell. I tremble at the thought.”
– Pastor David Wilkerson, New York

“…the thrust of the book is at odds with the message of Scripture…the true gospel is a call to self-denial, not self-fulfillment. The gospel is a message about redemption, not about life's purpose.”
– Pastor John MacArthur Jr, California

“The Purpose Driven Life is mainly about by-products of Christianity rather than Christianity itself. This is my main beef, but it is also the central feature of the entire seeker sensitive movement that Warren now presides over. It isn't about the attributes of God or the saving work of Christ and "other boring stuff like that." It's about you. It's about what you can get out of Christianity... the "purpose" language -- this comes from psychology and management consulting, not from Jesus Christ. This is why The Purpose Driven Life is so popular, and also why its spiritual impact will be vastly less than its financial impact.

So, in sum, let's not anoint Rick Warren as our national spiritual guru. His compromises with culture and intense pragmatism will not provide the substance that we need.”
– Pastor Richard Phillips, Florida
