Following are links to several Worldview Weekend radio programs in which Brannon Howse and Chris Rosebrough discuss what Passion is really about, along with a brief summary of each program. These programs are available for only a few weeks, but a lot more about Passion can be found at Chris' site, www.fightingforthefaith.org
Part One: Brannon's guest is Chris Rosebrough. Topic: Brannon and Chris discuss Passion 2013 taking place in Atlanta, Georgia with 60,000 Christian college students in attendance. Brannon and Chris break down some of the things being taught that do not line up with the Bible as well as analyze the worldview of speaker Judah Smith and organizer Louie Giglio. Topic: One of the musical groups at Passion 2013 is a group called Jesus Culture. Research Erin Benziger reports that this music group came out of the Church of New Apostolic Reformation proponent and Pastor of Bethel Church in Redding, California; Bill Johnson. Erin reports that one of the band members by the name of Kim Walker-Smith claims that she spoke with Jesus and that He cuddled her. Is this the promotion of mysticism? Topic: Has the Passion 2013 conference been conveying a worldview of social justice, dominion theology, community and collective salvation and if so how? Topic: Why is Passion 2013 a perfect example of how the right and left are merging both politically and spiritually? Part two will air Friday and will look at how Passion 2013 is promoting social justice among other dangerous and unbiblical philosophies.

Part Two: Passion 2013 Examined. Brannon's guest is Chris Rosebrough. Topic: Brannon and Chris discuss Passion 2013 taking place in Atlanta, Georgia with 60,000 Christian college students in attendance. Brannon and Chris break down some of the things being taught that do not line up with the Bible as well as analyze the worldview of some of the speakers and the musical group Jesus Culture. Topic: One of the musical groups at Passion 2013 is a group called Jesus Culture which came out of the Church of New Apostolic Reformation proponent and Pastor of Bethel Church in Redding, California; Bill Johnson. Brannon plays numerous sound clips from Jesus Culture band members as well as clips by their pastor Bill Johnson and students that are part of Johnsons church. These clips will make it clear that this group is following a different Jesus, a different gospel and embracing mysticism. Topic: A Jesus Culture member talks about working with New Apostolic Reformation leaders Cindy Jacobs, Lou Engle and Bill Johnson. You will not believe the heresy revealed in some of these audio clips so hang on. Topic: Hear audio clips of Giglio and Gary Haugen speaking at Passion 2013. Topic: When John Piper spoke at this conference last night did he call out the false teaching and false teachers? Even if Piper gave the gospel did he still violate 2 John 9-11, 2 Corinthians 6:14 and Romans 16:17 by being there? Topic: What is worship? Is worship an experience? Is worship a feeling? Is God pleased if worship songs are led by unbelievers and false teachers? Topic: Why is this conference a real case study in where and how the modern-church is being deceived and co-opted and how should Biblical Bereans respond? Topic: Why are so many pastors not informed about the biggest false teaches, and trends in the modern church today?

Part Three on Passion 2013. Brannon's guest is Chris Rosebrough. Topic: Did the Passion 2013 conference convey a worldview of social justice, dominion theology, community and collective salvation and if so how? Topic: Why is Passion 2013 a perfect example of how the right and left are merging both politically and spiritually? Topic: One of the speakers at Passion 2013 was Gary Haugen of International Justice Mission. Hear from an article where one of the board of directors of International Justice Mission is quoted as saying: In my cultural context, the biggest religious problem is your karma: your karmic debt. What you sow, you reap. You come to this earth with a karmic account, then you die and youre reincarnated, and that depends on how youve done in this life. When I read about Jesus death on the Cross, it wasnt so much the sacrifice for sin that struck me as the sacrifice for karma. The Christians I met spoke of sin in this life, but that was meaningless to me. Karma was what mattered. So I decided, When they talk about sin, I think of karma, and I believe Jesus died for my karma, so I am going to accept him on those terms Weve produced a series of books and cds that connect with the South Asian experience. Fortunately, I was able to pay for publication, because in the early days, not many Christian publishers were willing to take on a book that talked about Jesus as the bodhisattva who fulfilled his dharma to pay for my karma to negate samsara and achieve nirvana! Topic: Brannon and Chris respond to the above reported comments.

Part four on Passion 2013. Brannon's guest is Chris Rosebrough. Topic: President Obama has picked Passion 2013 leader Louie Giglio to pray at his 2nd Presidential Inauguration. Giglio is quoted as saying in part "May we all look to our God, from whom we receive mercy, grace, and truth to strengthen our lives, our families and our nation." When he says may we all look to our God, there is a problem because we all do not worship the same God. In addition, is Louie going to give a clear gospel in his prayer and refute the pluralism of President Obama as well as set himself apart from the Presidents anti-Biblical policies such as same-sex marriage and abortion? Is this one more example of the New Religious Right being co-opted by a politician in order to gain more credibility for their radical agenda? Topic: We take your calls on Passion 2013 and our past three radio programs and our phone lines light up.
