In the August 2010 cover story of Christianity Today, the magazine has brought out two things that the major Christian media has thus far ignored – one, that Beth Moore, described as “the most popular Bible teacher in America” by CT is a proponent of contemplative prayer, and two, that there is a debate over whether contemplative meditation is of Eastern religious origin or not. This Lighthouse Trails special report will look at both of these facets, Beth Moore’s contemplative propensities (incidentally, she is noted in CT for influencing “millions” of women) and the vital question as to whether contemplative prayer is indeed rooted in Eastern mysticism. . . . .

Hi Carmela,
Duh
I have heard this for some time now, but I never followed or kept up with any of Beth Moore teachings. She kind of came along later on in ministry.
. . .the vital question as to whether contemplative prayer is indeed rooted in Eastern mysticism. .
Duh
Christianity Today hit the nail right on the head when it informed its readers that:
“Critics argue that contemplative prayer is rooted in Eastern mysticism and thus not a practice that Christians should engage in.”

I have read many of Moore's books and even have one going now. . Breaking Free. I have not run across anything like this article said. I think it's one of those things that doesn't run throughout all of her teachings so unless you do run across it, you won't know because she's a great teacher as far as I'm concerned. Now, however, this has put a damper on things. I'm still stunned.

I know these type of things can be a little disheartening.
That is why more then another time in the history of the church, we have got to test the spirits and be involved in apologetic ministry more.
