Evangelical Seminary’s Outreach To Mormons Does Not Bridge The Gap

By Rob Sivulka

Are friendships with Mormons and criticism mutually exclusive? And should all evangelism to Mormons be in the context of friendship? The Salt Lake Theological Seminary Bridges movement :”(http://www.slts.edu/Conferences_Programs/Bridges.htm)”: would answer in the affirmative to both questions. The movement has become quite influential in the minds of many that conduct ministries to Mormon people. In fact, it seems that it has become quite an influential mode of doing any evangelism in our post-modern culture. This movement seems to be manifesting recently in a series of dialogues between an Evangelical and a Mormon.
