Running Against the Wind

Customer Rating :

Who better to sound a warning about the New Age practices that are infiltrating evangelicalism than a former New Age medium? As a teenager, Brian Flynn experimented with Ouija boards and Tarot cards. Later in life, after a time in the Air Force, he delved deeper into the occult. Over the course of several years he developed his skill for transcendental meditation and eventually had his own spirit guides. Yet through a series of remarkable events in Brian's life, he found the truth of the gospel and was radically saved out of darkness...only to discover that some of the same practices he had experienced as a medium were being introduced into and tolerated by evangelical churches as forms of legitimate meditation and spirituality (such as Contemplative Prayer, Breath Prayers, Centering etc.).

Running Against the Wind is not only a gripping un-put-downable story, but a relevant and crucial warning to readers and admirers of men like Rick Warren, John Ortberg, Eugene Peterson, Richard Foster and others, while also serving as a useful evangelistic tool to those caught up in New Age and Eastern spirituality.
