Casting a vision or commandeering control?

This is a program that must be heard. Please go to the ministry webpage (Click here).  There you will find a link for the Podcast or download near the end of the Article to hear the program with Chris Rosebrough on Stand up for the Truth radio program.


From the Stand Up For The Truth radio program:

"What is Vision Casting? Where does it come from? And is Vision Casting Biblical? There is a way that is biblical, as our guest explains. And unfortunately, there is a broad way that a growing number of church leaders cast vision that is nowhere to be found in Scripture – but is often used to control and manipulate. Today we’re going to explore those methods with our guest.

Chris Rosebrough is the host of the daily radio program
Fighting For The Faith, heard around the world on Pirate Christian Radio, a broadcast group he founded to help Christians discern God’s Word by taking a look at what people say and teach in the name of Jesus and holding it up to the light of Scripture.

Stand Up For The Truth is a radio and online ministry that covers news of the day, trends in the church and theological issues that Christians deal with and talk about every day, and we give you a place to be educated, equipped and connected to help you discern along the way."


This is a program that needs to be heard, especially by those who are involved in a purpose-driven church. Abuses suffered by Christians by this kind of leadership abound. Finally, someone is speaking out for the sheep, Praise God. This practice of "vision casting" by Church leadership is not condoned by scripture and needs to be corrected. Christians are told to leave their church when they discern the error, and strong arm tactics are used to force them out of  fellowship.
