This is a reminder about our upcoming get together next week:
The usual time: 7pm, March 25th
The usual place: High Point Coffee, 1735 W 7800 S, West Jordan
Andrew will be fresh back from the emergent conference in Albuquerque that started today. I'm sure he will have a lot to share with us.
Also, there has been a lot of discussion going around the blogosphere as of late as to where things are going with the church. There were so many different articles posted, but here are a few good places to start: the immanent collapse of evangelicalism (imonk, Jesus Creed); the rise of New Calvinists, at least according to Time magazine's 10 Ideas Changing the World Right Now; a call for a "theology of church extinction" as the church collapses in some regions, even as it rises in others (also see NYT's article Leaving Iraq: An Iraqi Christian); and thinking of the church rising, just what kind of church is rising in Africa today (some things to consider here and here); and then there is Phyllis Tickle’s The Great Emergence. Maybe we can spend a little time discussing where you think things are going.
