The Deconstruction Of Andy Stanley

Andy is following the spirit of this age and not the Spirit of God.

About an hour in. The whole section where Andy is preaching that the church needs to be a "modern family" situation is absolutely wild. The issue for him isn't the fact that there is a gay homewrecker that tore apart his family who is trying to volunteer as a sort of deacon at one of his church plants, it's that the gay homewrecker's "partner" isn't divorced yet, so they need to do that before they can help out. Also, it frames the WIFE as being in the wrong, because she doesn't want the husband and his partner to be in the community, and then the church community grooms them into being becoming complacent and accepting of their sin. And it's presented as the most casual thing. Wild...

Charles Stanley was the first pastor I listened to when I was saved nearly 40 years ago. Isn’t it amazing that the son of such a faithful preacher can fall so far away from the tree? I’m sure Charles saw it but probably felt helpless. God hears our prayers - let’s all say a little prayer that God would convict him of his errors.

This is one of the best documentaries I've seen, on any topic. What I found most interesting were his "turning points". I realized just how easy it is to be slowly turned away from the narrow path with just a few bad turns 😳

This was really well done Michael 👏🏻 You let Andy speak for himself and, in turn, dig his own grave. He’s a false teacher going full speed into apostasy. God help him.

Andy is conforming to the needs of the world instead of conforming to the Word of God, which his dad Charles did so obediently for 78 years. May he RIP.

I grieve the loss of a great communicator of the gospel to the world. I pray Andy will see his way back to Biblical faith!!

Let’s do Charles a solid and pray for his Son and keep in prayers.

Andy Stanley says that he "never felt called" to preach. That is by far one of the most accurate things I've heard him say!

So basically Andy doesn't feel the need to call people to repentance. Got it.

Andy Stanley reminds me of the Corinthian church. In the Corinthian church they seemed very proud of how accepting they were of the sinner in their midst. Paul had to write them a letter of correction telling them to disfellowship the sinner until they repented from their sin and stopped doing it. When the sinner stopped Paul then wrote a second letter and told them to welcome the repentant sinner back in. Paul did not rejoice in how open the church was to the sinner while he was still sinning it is not a reason to celebrate. The wages of sin is death. We are told to repent and turn from our sins.

I am where I am Spiritually mostly from the teachings of Dr. Charles Stanley. God used Charles Stanley to give me a solid foundation and with God's help, I have build on that Foundation. He's gone but not forgotten. .

I knew Andy Stanley had problematic teaching, but I didn’t realise it was this bad! Thanks for this video and all your hard work.

The church I was a member of soon after I got saved ('95) was fairly scriptural, albeit Arminian. However by 1998, the Pastor and Elders went to Willow Creek to see what the new Church Growth Movement was all about. When they came back, EVERYTHING changed. All of us were put on the back burner and ignored. We were told we couldn't even say anything to the Pastor after service when shaking hands, that they were there for the unbelievers only! The Pastor and his wife were two of our best friends, but that went out the window. I was on the building commitee just as this started up, and we were looking for property near-by, and we were sent out door-to-door asking "what would it take for you to come to church?" ?'s such as No Steeple? .... Less talk of sin? ... more fun activities, such as a built-in pool? I couldn't believe what I was hearing! I felt very strongly about witnessing to the lost, since I had just come from being that myself 3 or so yrs earlier. But I also knew this was completely wrong. Willow Creek (Bill Hybels) / Saddleback (Rick Warren) and their Seeker-Friendly ways are not God-honoring if you ask me. The sheep are starving in those churches!🐑🐑🐑😥

Charles Stanley was an Awesome preacher. Him and his son is the difference between light and dark.

I sorely miss Dr. Charles Stanley. 🙏✝️😔

Your docs are really informative without being ‘hit’ pieces 😊. I recommend doing Steven Furtick next, he is greatly influential to my generation, Gen Z.

So....a video from an atheist "dismantling" the Bible caused him to basically abandon the Scriptures. That is pitiable.

Beckett Cook is where I'm getting my model for trying to reach the gay people in my city. I have a gay son and two very close gay friends that I love dearly. They know how I feel about homosexuality but we have been able to remain close regardless. I don't "condone" what they do, but they know I love them. Andy Stanley seems like, along with Joel Osteen, he only wants the audience and to be popular. God's Word says what it says.

This is fantastic! After a Christian upbringing being a youth minister, a pastor and a leader of all sorts he has succumbed to an atheist. Andy Stanley is an example of how easy it is to allow the culture to influence you and miss the plan God has set before you. Fortunately, God is merciful and there is still hope.
