McKnight, MacDonald and the Emerging Church

Scot McKnight continues to be one of the most important voices in the emerging church (ec) discussion, especially as traditional evangelicalism continues its knee-jerk reaction to a stereotype of the ec that is always right in small pieces and almost never right as a whole. 

McKnight takes on "Why James MacDonald is Not Emerging" Part One and Part Two with a thoughtful and thought-provoking response.

I think the issue for the emerging movement, on the whole, is “how” to proclaim not “if” it is to proclaim. And, to make this clear, I don’t think the emerging movement on the whole is afraid of “what” it proclaims either. It simply believes that proclamation and performance are to be wedded.

I couldn't agree more. I look forward to hearing if James & Scot get together.

Peace,
