The popular flavor of Christianity that's really just New Age philosophy repackaged.

And too many people are falling for it.

In preparation for my new book, Confessions of a Christian Alcoholic, I’ve been working on a bonus chapter for those who pre-order. This chapter contains 28 FAQs, everything from “How can you claim to be a Christian and yet admit you were caught in ongoing sin?” to “Is alcoholism a disease?” to “Do you still want to drink?”

As a whole, the chapter and the answers to the questions act as a great summary of the book as well as a reference guide.

But the chapter also serves another function: it anticipates negative feedback. I think that’s a good exercise. If you say you believe something, you should be prepared for what those who disagree with you might say.

So one of the questions I’ve included and answered is: You’re a Christian, but you don’t sound like you’re living in Christ’s victory. Why not?

I haven’t specifically been asked that question. Yet. But I’m increasingly seeing people talking in those terms. And I can imagine there will be some thinking it. Maybe even that’s you.

So, today I wanted to share my response to that question. I think it’s an important response because it gets at the heart of a movement within Christianity that’s becoming popular, especially among the younger generations. It’s a movement that says we can claim victory over anything. In reality, though, it’s a movement actually based on New Age thinking.

So, here’s my full response. If you pre-order the book, you’ll get this answer and many others in the special bonus materials…
