Contemplative Prayer…
I’ve listened to loads of Apologia and a fair bit of Cultish. In fact, the episodes on the Enneagram completely convinced me! However, the episodes on contemplative prayer…guys, that ain’t it. I was so frustrated that she was being interview on this topic. She even said herself multiple times that she wasn’t an expert on these things. It was so frustrating hearing Dallas Willard dragged through the mud by people who clearly know nothing about him. The flippant comparisons and use of terms like “Gnosticism”, “universalism”, or “eastern religions” for anytime anything even remotely resembled something eastern or mystic was poor scholarship. As a seminarian working toward a PhD in theology, I was embarrassed by the low-level of reasoning and scholarship. She never once proved any ACTUAL connections between much of these things other than a few irrelevant connections to Richard Rohr. I don’t even practice contemplative prayer. I’m a Reformed Baptist; but the talk about lectio divina like it was some spell or witchcraft was crazy. She isn’t a biblical scholar, a church historian, nor a theologian. Please don’t interview her for things that don’t pertain. Just asking for higher quality.

It would be so helpful if each episode was set up doing a high level...Read full review »
