Believe those who are seeking the truth. Doubt those who find it.—André Gide

Series

I’m going to start a new series over the next few weeks, probably a week thing entitled “The Ramifications of Being (an) Emergent.” Nifty, eh?

What I really want to talk about is the issues that can be brought up with the mainstream church and emergents. So much time is spent bashing theology (from both camps) that it sometimes makes me sick. I want to talk about the changes that occur within the conversation of emergents that can be applied to all.

I really don’t want to discuss theology because I realize that there are vast differences in emergent thinking. (Yet we have a certain sense of unity if you notice) We (emergents) do have one common unifying theme that I think the mainstream church lacks. Social Justice.

So really over the next few weeks I want to expound upon my ideas starting with “The Social Ramifications of Being (an) Emergent.” While thinking through all of this I came to the realization that everything else builds upon the foundation of Social Justice.

I should have the first post up in the next few days. I’m going to take some time with these because I don’t want it to be the gaggle of thoughts the first three posts were.

We’ll see how it turns out.
