Well, it's been a while since this has happened - fellow blogger Andrew Jones has linked to an article I wrote for Next-Wave e-zine a while back. I hope he doesn't think I just wrote that since it says "August 2008" at the top of it for some reason. This was actually a conglomeration of 3 blog posts I did a couple of years ago I think, in which I tried to help identify different streams of what was going on in the emerging church scene.
That was back in the more than 50 readers a day days. I've not been the most prolific blogger in the last year or so. Even if I was, I'm not quite doing what I was then. Moving back into the Catholic Church hasn't exactly done a lot for my emerging street cred, know wha' I'm sayin'? Anyway, it was interesting to see that link today. Funny, bunch of young whipper-snappers might read that and be like, "Alan Creech, who's that - I'll have to check this guy out." Haa!
"Then, if we cannot as yet think alike in all things, at least we may love alike. Herein we cannot possibly do amiss." John Wesley
"Keep your eyes on the crucifix, for Jesus without the cross
is a man without a mission, and the cross without Jesus
is a burden without a reliever." Fulton J. Sheen
"...I am deeply convinced that the Christian leader of the future is called to be
completely irrelevant and to stand in this world with nothing to offer but his or her own vulnerable self." Henri Nouwen
