The Rev. Rick Warren used his Southern Baptist preaching skills to fire up a gathering of conservative Anglicans in Bedford on Tuesday.
“We stand with you in solidarity as God does something new in your midst,” said Warren, author of the mega-bestseller The Purpose Driven Life, pastor of massive Saddleback Church in California, and invocation-giver at the Obama inaugural.
The Anglican Church in North America invited Warren to be one of the headline speakers for its first provincial assembly, which continues through Thursday at St. Vincent’s Cathedral in Bedford.
