December 7th, 2008

To finish my series, I want to put the things I've looked at together a bit more. I've tried to show how the problems in how historical problems in how the church has looked at politics, culture, and pneumatology have led, in some ways, to current trends in American evangelicalism.

Sustaining a diverse (theological) conversation

February 13th, 2008

At Josh Brown's blog, there is a series of posts that I began to link to yesterday that are challenging some of the common critiques leveled against Emergent (and in this sense, I do mean, at least predominantly, Emergent Village, not the global emerging church). One of the posts deals with the conception that Emergent consists of white guys, sitting around talking about theology.

A couple of days ago, the Charlotte Observer had this interview with Brian McLaren, in preparation for his visit to the city this weekend.

And lest we forget emergent…

I've been doing a good amount of ranting about false dichotomies and wanting a third choice, and so on, lately.
