Scot McKnight has linked to a transcript of a talk he recently gave on the emerging movement. It’s excellent stuff, worth a read. I read too much crap around the interweb about the emerging movement — conflating it with the Emergent Village, dismissing it as truth-denying postmodernism or as “smells and bells” or even as gospel-denying heresy. As somebody who identifies myself broadly with the emerging movement (despite my various suspicions of various bits and pieces of what goes by the name “emerging”) it is nice to hear somebody say sensible things about the movement — as well as offer sensible (as opposed to misdirected) criticism at some aspects.
Good stuff!
