WILDFIRE: How Progressive Theology is Impacting the Church

by Daren Overstreet

The North American church is at a significant crossroads. Both pastors and churchgoers have detected a substantial shift in how current critical issues are being approached within the church community. Solid biblical principles are being overtaken by secular viewpoints, and traditional religious terminology is giving way to modern societal language. Some church members are seizing this opportunity to voice their opinions more loudly, while others are retreating into silence, fearful of participating in these discussions.

What's at the heart of this change? It's something called Progressive Theology - a potent mix of prevailing secular wisdom and a decreased emphasis on scripture. This is not a myth, but a real and potentially harmful trend spreading through churches at an alarming rate.

This book sheds light on the components that make up this unquestioned progressive interpretation of scripture and provides useful advice to Christians who are concerned about interacting with our society without compromising their commitment to biblical truths.

Author Daren Overstreet explores the nature of progressive theology, specifically its influence on community life and church doctrine. He uses recent data and input from people closely related to the sensitive issues currently affecting the church. The book serves as a beneficial resource for church leaders and members as they navigate our complex society.

Daren currently holds the position of an evangelist at the Anchor Point Church in Tampa, Florida.
