Customer Reviews
The Navigators
Would be interested in hearing about the organization The Navigators based in Colorado Springs. Their agenda is the 7 mountains. A personal concern since family members have moved there to work with that organization. Our side of the family is not Christian… and we’ve been told we’re bound for hell. Though they mean well in trying to “save us”, it is offensive. How does a non-Christian deal with otherwise nice family members who have become evangelical and have decided to make conversion their life work. Unfortunately, it will probably break the family. And, as a concerned American, how do we go about convincing friends that these organizations are dangerous and we should be paying attention to their agenda. When I’ve shared your podcasts or articles on this subject It is dismissed as an exaggeration. It’s not taken seriously. How do we get the public to see we are in trouble?
Thank you Seth Andrews
