A new post over at Apprising Ministries is presented as further evidence of this Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism (CSM) becoming a growing menace within the “Protestant” evangelical community. Wendy Minton Edwards is “Spiritual Formation Coach” from the Office of Prayer for Evangelization & Spiritual Awakening of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina (SBC) and our SF Swami encourages, while *wink* not recommending, her CSM devotees to attend a recent conference which featured Roshi Richard Foster along with SBC minister Dallas Willard and their reimagined pietism aka “spiritual disciplines.”

O sure, makes perfect sense to me; for a proper Christian spirituality ”Protestant” Southern Baptists are taught to turn to a Quaker mystic (and since when were Quakers evangelicals?) who is steeped in the mysticism of apostate Roman Catholicism—and specifically messed up mystics like Teresa of Avila and seducing spirits like Ignatius of Loyola (not the Church Father Ignatius) originator of the slavish Ignatian Examen, currently a rage in the postliberal Emerging Church rebellion against Sola Scriptura.
