Book excerpt: Are you dissatisfied with The Purpose Driven Life? Have you read Rick Warren's bestseller and wondered, "Is that all there is?" If you feel like something is missing from Rick Warren's best-selling books, The Purpose Driven Life and The Purpose Driven Church, you are not alone. Evangelical leaders are beginning to voice their concerns about the seeker-sensitive model of ministry. In More Than a Purpose, Dr. Marshall Davis Documents what evangelical leaders are saying about the megachurch movement. Explores the origins of Rick Warren's approach in the Church Growth Movement and Robert Schuller's gospel of self-esteem. Examines the theology of Warren's Saddleback Church and finds that it falls short of historic Christianity. Exposes the market-driven methodology and philosophical pragmatism of The Purpose Driven Church. Shows how the entertainment model of worship has taken over evangelical churches. Reveals how New Age spirituality has influenced the beliefs and the practices of The Purpose Driven Life. Challenges Christians to recover the essentials of evangelical Christianity that will restore integrity to the twenty-first century church Dr. Marshall Davis is an ordained Baptist minister with thirty years of experience as a pastor. He holds advanced degrees from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky. He presently serves as a pastor in western Pennsylvania.
