Articles 20VN | Ten Questions for the Nazarene Church | Nazarene ...

Dear Church of the Nazarene,

I love the Nazarene Church. My family and I attend a Nazarene Church in Columbus, Georgia. Nazarene churches in this area are very orthodox. But certain beliefs and certain people who promote non-biblical ideas have been permitted to infiltrate some areas of the Nazarene Church.

Some questions presented to fellow Nazarenes:

1. Are Nazarenes aware of and concerned about the loss of 10,000 Nazarenes over the last four years because of the emergent influence and mysticism in the church? (April 14, OneNewsNow)

2. Why did Northwestern Nazarene University participate in Brian McLaren's "Allelon Ministry in a Postmodern Context Conference" several years ago?

3. Why did NNU participate in participated in the "Renovare Spiritual Formation Conference" with Richard Foster several years ago?

4. Many Nazarenes are proud of perhaps the most famous Nazarene in America, James Dobson. Why did Focus on the Family feature Gary Thomas who is a proponent of contemplative prayer? Thomas encourages his readers to "choose a word... as a focus for contemplative prayer. Repeat the word silently in your mind for a set amount of time (say, twenty minutes) until your heart seems to be repeating the word by itself, just as naturally and involuntarily as breathing" Jesus didn't teach this eastern mysticism approach to prayer. Jesus said, when you pray say, "Our Father in heaven..."

5. Why is MidAmerica Nazarene University in Olathe, KS, Mount Vernon Nazarene University in Mount Vernon, OH, and Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, TN promoting Contemplative Spirituality?

6. Why did the Nazarene Church promote and provide their pastors with a contemplative approach to spiritual practices by providing a seminar in a Catholic contemplative location called the San Pedro Center. Dr. Alden Sproull, the founder of Kairos: Center for Spiritual Formation, led the contemplative services schedule prior to the General Assembly in Orlando, Florida in 2009. Dr. Sproull's website lists martial arts, yoga, and labyrinth walking among other contemplative practices.
