jay has a good reflection on what it means to be methodist & emergent. we jokingly brought out the methomergent name a few years ago, but since others have come out with presbymergent and anglimergent, i really hope that methomergent doesn’t stick.
Being methomergent in a traditional setting often means deep longings,
cries and groans of wanting to be something different while also
recognizing that folks invested in the traditional structures need the
grace of God as well. For some, it means being “in-between,” neither
fully traditional or fully emergent, and that in-betweenness drives
them crazy. For others of us (and I consider myself in this camp) it is
about a self understanding of the minister/pastor as interpreter.
yea, methomergent sort of sounds like your mixing the ole’ sudafed with some stolen ammonia in a trailer.

*I like methomergent! LOL, so much so that I bought the domain a while back to make sure nobody else got it.

hey marty, yeah, bill lizor picked up the domain name for awhile and wanted me to keep it, but i cared not for it. i guess since some folks are throwing it around it needs to be in someones hands
