Is Rick Warren a Closet Catholic?
[Is Rick
Warren a Closet Catholic?
Proclaiming the Gospel Ministries]
"The Eternal Word Television
Network, a Catholic station
conducted an interview with Rick
Warren that reveals how much he
embraces the Roman Catholic religion
and his push for ecumenical unity.
During the interview, Warren praises
all the Catholic mystics and the
Pope over and over again. At the
24:20 mark, Warren says "he watches
EWTN more than any Christian
channel." He said if you don't
understand the roots of your faith
you're like a tumbleweed.
One of his favorite shows on EWTN is
"Chaplet of the Divine Mercy."
After a stressful day, he comes home
and watches it with his wife Kay. He
said "I sit back, relax and
worship." He said one episode was a
Catholic prayer service in front of
the Monstrance.
About the 25:30 mark, the
interviewer says he was struck by
three images in Warren's office -
Mother Teresa, Martin Luther King
and Billy Graham. Warren said the
only one missing was Pope John Paul
"because those four people were the
greatest influences on the 20th
century" and he has tried to learn
lessons from each of them. Watch the
interview
