First Official Meeting - March 23

The first official meeting of the Wilmore-Lexington Emergent Cohort will be on Thursday, March 23. We will be meeting immediately after chapel, around 11:45, in the back dining room. We will meet until 12:50. Here are the topics we will be discussing:
  • What is the emerging church?
  • What is Emergent? Is it the same as the emerging church?
  • Is postmodernism a conversation partner in this discussion? Is the question of postmodernism even a valid discussion?
This is a lot to chew on in the short amount of time we have, so come prepared. Below are some blogs to peruse for some sense of the kinds of discussions that are taking place, as well as the diversity of the conversation. As a qualifier for those of you looking over this list - some of the people on here do not necessarily self-identify with the Emergent and/or emerging church conversation, but these are people I have judged to be asking similar questions.

Scot McKnight has recently written an article in The Covenant Companion called Future or Fad.

Some of us may find it a helpful primer to begin conversation.
