What does this have to do with Christianity or the gospel?

It's psycho babble.

[imnotverycr8ive]

Constructive criticism would greatly appreciated.

Slanderous labeling does nothing.

[tbgx1]

It IS psycho babble. It's not slander if IT'S TRUE, and it is, so deal with it and stop whining.

Preach the GOSPEL... How's that for constructive criticism?

Shall I say it again?

PREACH THE GOSPEL, not new age social doctrines.

[imnotverycr8ive]

That would be a command.

And no.

Rob does preach the gospel. Visit his church sometime or listen to a podcast. I can guarantee you he reads out of the Bible and prays to a resurrected Jesus.

"All truth is God's truth." - St. Augustine.

Excellent speaker for sure! But I thought that this was from his Christian video series? Doesn't that mean he should be talking about Christ?

[imnotverycr8ive]

It is. Nooma actually means "spirit" or "breath." This is just a sample of the whole video. The rest of it show how it ties into Christianity and faith.

When Christ spoke he didn't talk about himself all day. It was his heart to make sure that everyone that heard him speak knows his, maybe by stories and analogies. So how do you address Christianity to a culture that knows the structure of the religion so well but not really the heart of Jesus..? By continuing to talk about the stories>? well actually yes, and relating them to our modern time,.. which rob bell actually does very very well in these videos..

You can say that because you know first-hand what he preaches, right? Right?

If you'd actually heard his message, you'd find he is totally focused on God.

@tbgx1 there is more to Christianity than just preaching the gospel. you have to LIVE IT. and how do you live it? right here. this is how he's showing it. so maybe open your mind a little or at least shut up? thanks

I purchased this video and it was excellent. It contains many scriptures and references to Jesus life and acts. It was theologically sound and enlightening. It brought me closer to God and made me realize his place in my life with a new reality. I am greatly distressed that 'fellow' Christians are criticizing this media. If you want to fight then fight for our rights and take on the politicians.

ROGER THAT! did you see the one about how peter walked on the water because it was peters will to do so!? do some research on this guy and you will find out where he is REALY coming from.

[slb22000]

It's the last sixteen words that say it all: When we're still holding on to how things were our arms aren't free to embrace today.

You think this isn't part of Jesus' message? Jesus called us to get rid of all that traps us and follow him, to be present with him, to hear him now, in this time.
