I thought it was a great article - esp reading it as someone formerly in leadership but being sadly disappointed in the 'church'. Not individuals - but the machine. Though I suppose the machine is only doing what the individuals program it to do. (sigh) I actually feel more bummed now than before. I feel like that person who replied - it's just too big, so it's easier to stay with what we know. Sad but true. I've not got the energy to make a difference. :(

I enjoyed the article. But, in most of these discussions about the emergent church, I always feel I am at a loss. There is so much effort spent of this concept of context, yet I rarely find any thick description of one. Certainly we read about conflict between various collections of like-minded people (i.e. denominations, the un-churched, and the un-denominated), directed toward nebulous ideas regarding a perceived need for change. Having come to know Jesus, and then His church through personal relationships - with what have become authentic friends - later in life; I can’t say I know what needs to changed. If I came to know the Lord, anyone else can. I would simply ask the question, "Do you love the people that are in your life?" In time, those relationships will walk through more sermons than you know.
