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!
On a completely different matter i have created a e-mail address to start irelands first flash mob and I’m looking for the help of all bloggers to spread the word. When there is enough people recruited, i reckon 30-50+, a time and venue with a chosen theme will be arranged and everyone who’s e-mailed FlashDublin@gmail.com wil be given a weeks notice give or take!!
Most likely goin to be a saturday! Please include suggestions for possible themes.
Spread the word, blog on!
Thanks,
FlashDublin
