I have heard him preach great sermons.. salvation message--- but --I also have heard that he may be into Spiritual Disciplines and Formation. I also SAW some conference that incorporated this a while back but can not locate it.
I think more research into this is needed. I pray that he has not gone into this "silence and solitude- breath prayers/centering prayer etc"
One needs to read about these practices. There is a great article by Bob DeWaay on this that I have posted on here before (I may find it and make it a "sticky")
Also.. a very excellent book on these "practices is
"Running Against the Wind" by Brian Flynn

Who better to warn the church about New Age practices infiltrating the church than a former New Age medium?
As a teenager, Brian experimented with Ouija boards and Tarot cards. After time in the Air Force, he delved into the occult. In time, he developed his skill for transcendental meditation and eventually had his own spirit guides.
Through a series of events in Brian's life, he found Jesus Christ and was radically saved out of darkness, only to find that some of the same practices Brian experienced as a medium were being introduced into the Christian church as forms of legitimate meditation and spirituality.
Running Against the Wind is a relevant and crucial warning to believers and an evangelistic tool to those caught up in New Age and Eastern spirituality.
