DISQUS

Good one ... and I agree especially with the warning here ...

"I tend to think that the emerging church, in our desire to be intellectually and culturally rigorous, have jettisoned too much of that messy, ignorant-seeming, Holy Spirit “stuff” that seems to be the domain of pietists and Pentecostals."

Thanks DJ for organizing this. Hope I can make it after my denomination EGM where I'm serving as the chaplain. As for the word "emergent", I suppose there's nothing to be really afraid of it :-) and yet, what we wanted is to include more who would be interested in a conversation. Based on the topic, looks like I'll be listening more than contributing (maybe I might throw in some questions) let's see.

I like the title and new design. Looking forward to see the book

Looks good ... I like the title :-)

Sorry I missed this skypecast :-) I was on my way back from Germany to Malaysia. Hope to join you again the next round.

thanks for a great conversation DJ, Bruce, and Eugene (eavesdropping) :-)

wow! looking forward to read how it all develops.

Thanks Tim for response to my question. I thought it's really great you are taking time to respond in the comments sections. How would you see the place of the Charismatic and Pentecostal movement in this whole discussion especially in terms of "for spiritual and ecclesiastical vitality" and also "evangelical essentials ... crucial for the church maintain in order to stay in that space"? I recognize this is a broad question but I'm interested in your views on this.

nice of Tim Keller to post a comment. :-) I'm wondering whether "trying to create a new space between older liberalism and older evangelicalism" necessarily means that one is disconnecting themselves from "evangelicalism"? (cf. Evangelicals like Stott carving space within mainline church contexts such as the Anglican Communion)

Perhaps the Asian American Church younger leaders may model a way forward in terms of working out disagreements?

Those of us in Asia will be eavesdropping :-)>

keep pressing refresh until they fix it? :-) I emphatize with u.

I think I meant "Group HUG"! But part of conversations include "Huh?" ...

I had a great time! Thanks DJ, and everyone for "including" me :-) Group Huh anyone?

This will be my maiden skypecast with over seas friends :-) on a more specific topic. It's a date. Sorry I can't share Malaysian fruits virtually --> http://www.marimari.com/content/malaysia/best_o... (would be a good preview, and invitation to come here for holidays!)

ok .. it will be fun to see how this is going to work

Nice .. love it!

let me just say ... I like your new blog design. And on a lighter note (after reading your link and the comments which has important observations): what if emergentsia might sound like those engage in the conversation from Asia? (that's what first came to my mind)
