Most Improbable Dialogue
Oct. 30, 2009 - In October an intense, closed-door dialogue was held at Wheaton College between an evangelical team led by Fuller Theological Seminary president Richard Mouw and a Mormon team led by Robert Millet, a professor at Brigham Young University. This discussion was
centered on proselytism, a topic on which the two sides are intense rivals. This was the 17th dialogue between the groups since 2000.
- The talks are not the only breakthrough. LDS president Thomas S. Monson and his two counselors permitted Standing Together, an alliance of 90 Utah evangelical churches, to use the historic Salt Lake City Tabernacle for a September 13 revival meeting.
Standing Together president Gregory Johnson, called the event "historic." In his message at the event, evangelist Nick Vujicic challenged LDS teaching by insisting that "every human being is born with an evil nature," and by emphasizing that salvation cannot depend on a person's goodness because "you can't even forgive yourself." More than 100 people made personal commitments to Jesus Christ.
The article chronicles other discussions and events involving many Christian apologists including Ravi Zacharias and Craig Hazen in recent years.
