such a good topic, glad you are having a round table about it. glad to have met you, share a meal, and learn about your mission to expose the consumerism we as christians are guilty of...it has challenged and humbled me...

thanks for this link. i am concerned about this gap in the church today...and am hopeing to generate some discussion at the upcoming nashville emergent convention. we are so quick to marginalize the "less than currently popular" be it elderly, women, minorities... and it is from these margins that there is so much to learn. shalom, susie

we could skirt the issue and be like the mormons... believing in "absolute truth as long as it is translated correctly" which for all intense purposes, means in house! ( i can say this as i was raised in the mormon church..first hand knowledge) but then i think about how many conservative christian churches that i have encountered or been involved with that seem to be saying the same thing: "absolute truth is our truth!" how relativistic is that...

As i recall, Jesus said "I am the Truth" so that should clear things up...
...my hand is raised and i am definitely emerging...(whether or not that makes me part of the "emergent church people" well, i guess i need to find out how to get a membership card...(read very tongue in cheek;)

seemsto me, that we are either back at the translation and commentary arguement: who has authority in exegesis, what hermeneutic is being used to interpret the text, and who gets to decide these questions, or we agree that as we read and interpret we keep ever before us that we must enter into relational Truth that is Emmanuel.

dj,
i linked to the conference and have to wonder out loud "where are the women speaker and break out sessions leaders?' i counted only one. and i think that women have something important to contribute to building the character of a leader...do you think you could pose that question for me? or let me know if i missed something on the site. what is the deal?

dj,
sorry for loss, and yet grateful that your mentor's suffering has come to an end. what a legacy he leaves behind...you are in my thoughts and prayers as you remember, grief and go on...
looking forward to doing lunch soon.
shalom, susie
