Chris Rosebrough on right with Emergent Church Pastors

This is a work in progress which will be updated as I continue my research on Chris Rosebrough.

His many blogs and websites include: Extreme Theology, Fighting for the Faith, Christian Pirate Radio, Museum of Idolatry, Facebook - Pirate Christian, Twitter @PirateChristian. and Letter of Marque.

He is referred to as a friend of Ken Silva. Chris was a contributor to CRN (Christian Research Network) until the recent BridgerGate controversy developed. There has been controversy for sometime over his photos with various emerging church leaders.

I am still researching and attempting to figure out the Chris Rosebrough conflict concerning if Rick Warren teaches salvation by works reported on this website.

He can be safety called a "Watchblogger" specializing on the Emergent or Emerging Church, and the Purpose Driven Church movement of Rick Warren.

Chris is a Lutheran but likes Michael Horton who is a confused Calvinist per Lutheran standards. Lutherans typically refer to Calvinist as radical reformers with the view that Lutherans are the more conservative reformers of the Reformation. Calvinist tend to view Lutherans as insufficiently reformed from the Roman Catholic faith.

Chris Rosebrough holds a degree in Religious Studies and Biblical Languages from Concordia University in Irvine, California and a Masters Degree in Business Administration from Pepperdine University. Pepperdine University historically has a connection with the American Restoration (Stone-Campbell) Movement and its business courses are highly regarded. He has been a long contributor to Worldview Times.

For awhile when he lived in California, Chris taught at Capo Valley Church in San Juan Capistrano, California. Chris moved to Indiana after his company went into bankruptcy.

Chris Rosebrough worked for National Medical Registry Inc, located at 216 West Perkins Street in Ukiah, CA 95482-4800 for awhile before leaving to create his own company. National Medical Registry Inc. company website is located here. Chris Rosebrough became CEO of Vendtegrity, a software company that sells to hospitals.

Vendtegrity, LLC is located at 10 Calle Prospero San Clemente, CA 92673. The officers include Chris Rosebrough, Phil Hodge. Vendtegrity, LLC was incorporated on Wednesday, December 01, 2004 in the State of CA and is currently bankrupt. (Agent Resigned 02-04-2009) represents Vendtegrity, LLC as their registered agent. Vendtegrity is bankrupt and no longer exists. For awhile Chris Rosebrough's Pirate Christian websites shared webspace storage with websites connected to the bankrupt Vendtegrity, LLC. The Vendtegrity, LLC website information now appears to be almost totally removed from the internet.

VMS in Healthcare

Slow to catch on, but interest rising

Management of supplemental staff via automated procurement software - a vendor management system - is a trend emerging in the healthcare industry. Despite healthcare being more reluctant than some industries to jump into e-procurement, staffing companies and software sellers agree that more of the dollars spent on contingent labor used in hospitals and other facilities is likely to flow through a VMS.

"Vendor management continues to be an important trend within our acute care customer base," Cross Country Healthcare Inc. CEO Joseph Boshart told Staffing Industry Healthcare News earlier this year.

Added Leanne Oatman, VP of sales and customer services at Comforce Inc.: "The interest is greater than we've ever seen, especially as hospitals try to decrease the amount of staffing utilization."

To date, the VMS market in U.S. healthcare staffing is about $100 million, if calculated at about 1% of the total revenue in the sector ($10.5 billion), which several sources said would be a good estimate. The penetration rate is below 2%: Sources said only 500 to 1,000 U.S. hospitals have a VMS installed; that's out of about 5,800 hospitals total, not including other facilities such as surgery centers. And Staffing Industry Analysts research shows that only about 12% of healthcare industry customers that buy supplemental staffing services plan to buy a VMS in the next two years.
Slow start

Unlike other industries that use contingent workers, healthcare has been slow to implement e-procurement. "They're not as friendly toward technology," said Jason Lander, founder of ShiftWise, a VMS sold directly to hospitals. ShiftWise is used in almost 300 facilities and recently licensed its product for Cross Country to sell.

Many hospitals don't understand how getting a staffing company involved in managing temporary workers will help save dollars, when what they really want to do is eliminate agency nurses altogether, said Bob Livonius, CEO of Nursefinders Inc., a staffing company that sells a VMS. "The whole idea of letting the fox in the henhouse is a difficult sell. Most hospitals are looking to reduce temporary labor, and the client doesn't view spending money [on a VMS] as doing that."

Ed Scott, VP and general manager of the per diem division at InteliStaf Inc., added that education is key. "Many hospitals are not that well-versed in what these offerings bring to them," he said. InteliStaf also sells staffing management products.
Significant savings

But optimism reigns among sellers of VMS who see rapid growth. One is Chris Rosebrough, CEO of Vendtegrity, a software company that sells to hospitals. He predicts that 30% of the healthcare supplemental staffing market will be managed by VMS by 2010.

Livonius concurs: "It wouldn't be unrealistic, and it could be even earlier than that," he said. Of Nursefinders' $350 million in sales, about $90 million comes from VMS or related workforce solutions business, Livonius said. Rosebrough said Vendtegrity's hospital installations, which manage about $16 million in contingent spending, should double this year to six. "More and more hospitals I talk to are interested in VMS," Rosebrough said.

VMS proponents say the value proposition for hospitals can't be ignored. For one small hospital, Vendtegrity saved $500 million in temporary labor spending in 12 months, Rosebrough said. At Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian in Newport Beach CA, Comforce's VMS reduced agency spending more than 70%, Oatman said.

Not all savings will be as dramatic, depending on the size of the hospital and how many temporary workers it uses. Chris Moseley, VP of labor services for Broadlane, a technology company that sells a VMS, said that in most cases savings may range from 6% to as high as 18% a year. Broadlane products are used in 180 acute care facilities.

Christian Answers Yahoo Videos on Islam

2009-08-16T18:23:00.000-07:00

Greetings in Christ,

Once again another Christian brother asked if we had any videos dealing with the subject of Islam. The videos listed below represent most but not all of the many videos we have produced on Islam from a Christian perspective (see our online video catalogue at www.BibleQuery.org for all of the videos we have done on Islam). Currently we have 128 videos on many different subjects posted on Yahoo Video & Google Video with most of these being one hour broadcasts that had previously played on various local cable access channels. We still have 300 to 400 hours of Christian programming to upload on to the internet as the Lord permits. Simply search "Larry Wessels" on the homepage for Google Video or Yahoo Video to access more of our programs.

The videos listed below are hosted by Larry Wessels, Director of Christian Debater/Christian Answers of Austin, Texas (PO Box 144441, Austin, TX 78714, e-mail: cdebater@aol.com) with Steve Morrison, Director of Research for Christian Debater/Christian Answers of Austin, Texas guesting all of the programs on Islam (with the exception of the Nation of Islam, Satan in Your Nose & Other Muslim Teachings Youtube video, & the Witnessing to the Muslims series). Steve Morrison holds a PhD, has written four books on Islam (Dialoging With Muslims, Reliability of the Bible and Christianity vs. the Qur'an and Islam, Answering Muslim Objections to Christianity, and Letting Islam Destroy Itself in a Muslim's Mind) and runs our websites www.MuslimHope.com, www.BibleQuery.org and www.HistoryCart.com. Most of our video productions are a direct result of Steve's outstanding personal research into primary Islamic source material over many years.

Please feel free to send this e-mail on to others that may need reliable information on the subject of Islam. Keep in mind that the Nation of Islam is not actually "Islamic" but rather is a cultic movement developed in the United States in the twentieth century but I included it here because of the great interest in it since the presidential campaign.

May the Lord bless you all,

Larry Wessels

Response of Susan Castillo to Surph's Side Blog & CRN Postings

2009-06-30T06:37:00.000-07:00

I have recieved a response from Susan Castillo and I am convinced that Denise of Surph's Side blog is guilty of slander. In addition, Christian Research Network is guilty of spreading slander for not checking the accuracy of gossip posted on Surph's Side blog. Was it too much for both to check the accuracy of their claimed facts before publishing something on the internet. Neither Surph's Side blog or Christian Research Network has obeyed the Bible on this matter and are guilty of sin!!!!! REPENT!!!!!

Greetings, Ron,

These are my sole comments on this matter…

Great care was taken during this class to differentiate between that material which was presented to provide historical background/ an understanding of other denominations and that which might be considered appropriate and useful in the context of the Protestant, and particularly the Reformed, community of faith. Anything that was endorsed was biblically based, theologically sound, and in no way violated the spirit of those reflections of Luther as they appeared in the article. For the record, I have never before heard of the DVD of a coincidentally similar title on which I was accused of basing my class.

Sincerely.

Susan Castillo

More Gossip from Surph's Side Blog on Tim Keller?

2009-06-28T23:13:00.000-07:00

It is no secret that Denise of Surph's Side blog loves to write inaccurate information on Tim Keller. She is good at twisting the facts to make Tim Keller look bad. Her gossip of Tim Keller is half truth which examined in full context is exposed as being simply gossip. I have not had time to check out Denise's latest attack on Tim Keller, but it appears that CRN has not taken any effort to check her facts either.

Do not Spiritual Discernment persons check the facts reported by other Spiritual Discernment persons before spreading it on the internet?

It appears that Susan Castillo is a short term staff member at Redeemer Presbyterian Church NYC per the website and I did find this information. Unlike the gossip persons of CRN, I have sent a email to Susan Castillo as I desire to discuss the matter before posting something on the internet about it. I hope that she will respond to my information request so that I may find out the facts before coming to the conclusion that a heretic is on Tim Keller's staff.

Walid Shoebat

2009-06-28T23:04:00.000-07:00

The spiritual discernment satire gang take on Walid Shoebat; and I know him. He would periodically show up and worship with the Messianic Jews I use to hang out with when I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area. Knowing Walid Shoebat I am not so sure he wouldn't agree with them; but perhaps Walid Shoebat has changed as when I knew him he was not as famous as he is now. For sure Walid is more of an Islam Expert than the so called Robert Albert Morey.

Pastor Mark at the Crystal Cathedral

2009-06-15T07:41:00.001-07:00

I am at the Ontario International Airport waiting for a flight to Houston, Texas. Yes, I am once again going to the Lone Star State. Next week I will be in the Aloha State. Naturally, it is the plans of a man and only God knows my future.

Yesterday I was blessed to shake hands with Pastor Mark (Mark Driscoll of Mars Hill Church) at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, California. Pastor Mark gave two sermons. The first was on Jesus and the second was on the cross of Jesus. The second sermon was hardly a typical "The Hour of Power" sermon as it was not all that positive yet alone all that much of a positive thinking sermon. Both sermons were excellent considering the time limit that "The Hour of Power" puts on sermon length. Part of the Southern California Mark Driscoll fan club was there and it was all to easy to spot them as they looked out of place in the typical Crystal Cathedral faithful. First off, the Mark Driscoll fan club is much younger than the typical Crystal Cathedral groupie. In addition, they were the ones asking questions about when is Mark Driscoll going to give his sermon. They were there to see Mark Driscoll.

I had never been to the Crystal Cathedral before so I took a lot of photos. When I find the time I will post the photos of the Crystal Cathedral and it will include photos of Mark Driscoll.

To the Brood of Vipers who do not like Mark Driscoll, Pastor Mark is as cool in person as he is on video. I love cool dudes who love Jesus and I hate negative persons who claim to be Christian yet love to do the work of Satan by attacking Christians that they do not like without just cause.

Saving Christianity from Spiritual Discernment Junkies Who Blog

2009-06-06T14:09:00.001-07:00

While tracking down the cause of the sudden high traffic to my WordPress blog titled "True Faith Defender"; I found a satire blog that I highly recommend. This blog can be viewed here using this hot link.

Is There Really a Need for Spiritual Discernment Watchblogs like Christian Research Network?

2009-05-25T07:37:00.000-07:00

I have started reading the book by Tim Challies titled "The Discipline of Spiritual Discernment". Beyond question all Christians with the aid of the Holy Spirit need to do sound spiritual discernment. A Christian's worldview is to be Christian. The life of a Christian is to be guided by the word of God. Biblical thought is what a true Christian is called to do by God.

What is called spiritual discernment on the internet is more often attacks on other Christians for having beliefs which in some cases fall into the area of Christian Liberty. I make no attempt to make cults part of Christendom such as Jehovah Witnesses, Church of Christ of Latter Day Saints, etc..

On the whole, John MacArthur and Phil Johnson of Grace Community Church train persons on how to do sound spiritual discernment rather than making a list of ministries to avoid. Much of my training on spiritual discernment has in the past been from reading books by John MacArthur. Modern day Christendom has been very much blessed by the ministry of Grace to You and Grace Community Church.

Phil Johnson does have his list of bad theology websites. This list is by no means complete as many more could be added if Phil Johnson had the time to do more research.

Darwin Fish of "a true church" has condemned John MacArthur for not making a detailed list of all of the false teachers in Christendom. Phil Johnson has added Darwin Fish to his list of false teachers. Having researched "a true church" myself there is no question in my mind that Darwin Fish is a false teacher and "a true church" is "a true cult".

Fundamentalist Baptist such as David Cloud's Way of Life have been in the business of attacking other ministries long before the appearance of "Christian Research Network". David Cloud being a King James Only believer attacks everyone using anything but a King James Bible.

Rick Miesel of Biblical Discernment Ministries (BDM) is another group that has existed long before the appearance of "Christian Research Network". Yet another is Faith Defenders of Robert Albert Morey. The blog named Biblical Thought has some sort of relationship to Faith Defenders or at least it did until recently when the link to it was removed from the Faith Defenders home web page. The main blogger on Biblical Thought is Stephen Macasil who is also a contributor to Christian Research Network.

This blog will be reporting on subjects posted on the Christian Research Network.

The problem with spiritual discernment websites is that an individual Christian has to have spiritual discernment concerning spiritual discernment websites. Do you become a blind follower of the spiritual discernment website called "a true church", "Way of Life", "Biblical Discernment Ministries", or "Christian Research Network". One cannot be a faithful Christian of all three as each mutually excludes the others as being faithful to the word of God.
