How Christianity is Growing Around the World

[CBN.com] April 11, 2006--Thus, as Christianity becomes more Southern, it becomes more biblically orthodox. While people like Bishop John Shelby Spong and Templeton Prize winner Arthur Peacock insist that Christianity must abandon its historic beliefs to survive, it is precisely these historic beliefs that attract our Southern brethren.

And that’s why in Spong and Peacock’s own Anglican Communion African bishops are ordaining missionaries to re-convert the West.

This story of Christianity’s explosive growth is one of the great untold stories of our time -- a story that North American Christians need to hear.

It’s a story that repudiates those who say that Christians must compromise their beliefs to remain relevant. The opposite is the case. Biblical orthodoxy is winning converts while churches that have lost their biblical moorings languish.
