Not sure what you're referring to, but I have no use for Willow Creek. I live about an hour from Willow Creek and have absolutely zero desire to step foot on the property. I've known a few of their members. I suppose they are nice people, but very shallow.
I was just interested to see that McLaren was invited to speak at Willow Creek. I knew they were "seeker sensitive" etc., but I didn't know that it had gotten that far.
It's not surprising to me that when a church is so weak in their theology that they become prey to such people. I fear that in the next ten years that we will see many evangelical churches become as liberal as the UCC.

I wouldn't drive an hour (or five minutes for that matter) to attend Willow Creek and I wouldn't walk across the street to listen to McLaren.
