Questions that Provoke
A couple weeks ago a friend from church asked me what I knew about the Emergent Church (EC). For the next hour or so we discussed the EC, D. A. Carson's book on the EC, postmodernity, and related subjects. While it was an interesting discussion, it pretty much exhuasted what I knew about the EC and set me on a search to learn more. I have found several places online that have been great resources for learning more about this discussion and am now intrigued in how this movement (although they do not see themselves as a "movement") will impact Christianity.

Have you tried a book called The Shaping of Things to Come? Outside of the Bible, it is among the most influential books I've read. One of my favorite things about it is that it doesn't offer solutions but encourages thinking and creativity about the church's place in our times and culture. Although personally unfamiliar with much of the emerging church writings I have heard from those more familiar that this book is unlike most written thus far.
