The Life of a Youth Pastor

This book was very interesting, and even though I thoroughly enjoyed reading it I am glad to be finished.  This book claims to expose darkness to light, pointing us back to a Christianity centered in Christ. It doesn’t parade around.  It gets straight to the point by exposing false teachers such as Rhonda Byrne author of “the Secret to life”, Joel Osteen author of “Your Best Life Now”, Joyce Meyer, and many others.   It also takes an in-depth look at many of the teachers and pastors within the Faith movement exposing many of the flaws in their theology and ideology.  The fabric of faith in this movement is slowly unraveled revealing a counterfeit Christ and health and wealth Christianity that leaves people with no true substance.  The testimonies of broken hearts and lost lives of former followers of these false teachings are also revealed.  In this book Hank Hanegraaff gives us the acronym L-I-G-H-T-S & L-E-G-A-C-Y to help us better translate scripture for ourselves.  In the end I was challenged to get back to the basics of Christianity.  The ABC’s – Amen (Prayer), Bible, Church, Defense, and Essentials.  I will warn you that there will be times when you are reading this book that you might become angry and offended with some of the beliefs of the Faith movement.  I know I was.  That is why it is so important that you read this book.  Be sure to check out the 5 part blog post series “Exposure” based upon this book.  It will give you further insight.  Or be sure to get your copy today from Thomas Nelson Publishing by clicking the image above.
