The summit doesn't differ from the deep, dark valley...

There is this new website RethinkChristianity, it's a site trying to promote a new way of looking at Christianity, part of the Emerging Church movement. Anyway, the guys that run the site post a question every week (they just started a couple of weeks ago) and open up the question for folks to send in videos of their answers to the question.

Last week the question was: Why do you think so many people are questioning the traditional ways of doing church?

Go to the site. Check out some of the videos. Let me know what you think about what these folks have to say about this question.

I'm not going to put my opinion out there quite yet. I will say that I agree with some of what is said, and don't agree with some of it too.

I am on the fence when it comes to the Emergent Church, but I think that these guys, Mark Scandrette, Tony Jones, and Doug Pagitt, have some good things to offer and I think the questions that they are posing are very relevant to Christians today and need to be addressed. So, I hope that this website takes off....

Let me know what you've got.







... and the valley doesn't differ from the kitchen sink.
