I am planning on talking about the terminology I used. I was somewhat intentional about the words I used to tag my posts and to describe this stuff...but I do have an explanation, and I kind of think we'll be on the same page in theory after you see what I have to say about "emerging" v. "emergent." Hey Tyler – Check back later tonight or tomorrow. I am planning on talking about the terminology I used.

Are you stating this about postmoderns and church in general (ie "emerging church") or are you talking more about the organization Emergent? I guess I see a fairly distinct difference between the two. I guess this all comes down to one question for me.

While I say that for a handful of reasons, including that I agree, I affirm you in your treatment because it was thought out, insightful, honest, and in my opinion, humble. It was not about you pushing "Jenn Lockerman's agenda", but causing people to think and question...perhaps you are more emergent than you give yourself credit for. More importantly, your goal was to steer people of our generation to the Bible as their source for authority in their lives. It's not very postmodern to have one set of guidelines, but God is a One of definitive order, see also Creation, marriage, the plan for atonement through Christ. Therefore, we as His followers are to be obedient to His Word, not reinterpret His Word through a friendly philosophical lens. For both posts concerning the Emerging Church, I say “well done”.
