In this episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller exposes how the emergent postmodern movement has radically redefined biblical missions into what is now called missiology or missional living. Drawing heavily from Roger Oakland’s Lighthouse Trails booklet The New Missiology: Doing Missions Without the Gospel, Addie explains how the biblical mandate to proclaim repentance, salvation, and the exclusivity of Jesus Christ has been replaced with social action, cultural accommodation, and religious inclusivism.

The episode examines how influential leaders such as Brian McLaren, Rick Warren, Donald Miller, and others promote the idea that people can remain within Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, or other religions while merely “adding Jesus” to their spiritual framework. Addie demonstrates how this teaching mirrors ancient pagan syncretism, denies the necessity of repentance, and empties the cross of its saving power.

Listeners are warned that this new missiology does not produce converts—it produces compromise. By prioritizing pragmatism, results, and cultural sensitivity over truth, the emergent model comforts people in this life while withholding the only message that can save them for eternity. This episode is a clear call to return to biblical missions rooted in the full gospel of Jesus Christ, even when that message is unpopular or costly.

Dive deep into scripture with Addie as current events, teachings in the modern church, testimonies, trends, important biblical teachings, and the sweeping drift away from the basic truths in the Bible across the modern-day Church are all brought to light to be tested only against the infallible, un-changing, Word of God on Discerning the Drift.

In this episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller continues exposing the mystical revolution that has reshaped modern spirituality and quietly infiltrated the church. Building on the research of the late Ray Yungen, Addie traces how New Age beliefs—once viewed as fringe or dangerous—were repackaged under softer language like mindfulness, meditation, self-help, and holistic wellness to gain widespread acceptance.

The episode examines how influential cultural platforms and personalities helped normalize New Age spirituality, leading millions toward beliefs centered on the “higher self,” inner divinity, and planetary spirituality. Addie explains how occult concepts such as spirit guides, channeling, meditation, energy healing, and metaphysical practices are now entering churches under Christian terminology—while core doctrines like the atonement, the exclusivity of Christ, and biblical salvation are being discarded.

This program serves as a sobering warning that the New Age movement never disappeared—it simply changed its language and methods. Listeners are encouraged to test every teaching against Scripture, recognize occult techniques disguised as faith, and remain anchored in the authority of God’s Word.

In this episode of Discerning the Drift, Addie K. Miller draws a clear and unavoidable line between biblical Christianity and the New Age spirituality now masquerading as faith within the church. Continuing her examination of emergent postmodernism, Addie contrasts the finished work of the cross of Jesus Christ with the New Age doctrine of the “higher self”—the belief that man is innately good and ultimately divine.

Using resources from Lighthouse Trails and the writings of Ray Yungen, this episode exposes how meditation, metaphysics, mysticism, and humanistic psychology all converge on a single lie: that humanity does not need a Savior. Addie explains how redefining sin, grace, and salvation makes the cross unnecessary, replacing repentance with self-realization and redemption with mystical experience.

The program also traces the rise of the modern mystical revolution—from the counterculture of the 1960s to its normalization in today’s churches—showing how spirituality divorced from Scripture has opened the door to universalism, interspirituality, and a false gospel rooted in man-centered belief rather than divine truth. This episode is a sober warning to test every teaching, reject extra-biblical revelation, and return fully to the authority of God’s Word.
