Emergent Movement on PBS
The "Emergent" movement is the focus of the PBS program, Religion & Ethics Newsweekly, which airs this weekend. Here in Georgia, it's on Sunday, July 10, at 6:30 am [Georgia Public Broadcasting], so I'll be setting the VCR. Here's the program description:
Part 1 of a two-part report titled “The Emerging Church” explores ways Evangelical and mainline Protestants are “rethinking” Christianity, both in theology and liturgy. Also: A report on transcendental meditation in one Iowa town.According to the Religion News Service, the program features an interview with Brian McLaren. I'm currently reading McLaren's amply-subtitled book, A Generous Orthodoxy: Why I am a missional, evangelical, post/protestant, liberal/conservative, mystical/poetic, biblical, charismatic/contemplative, fundamentalist/calvinist, anabaptist/anglican, methodist, catholic, green, incarnational, depressed-yet-hopeful, emergent, unfinished Christian.

Nice blog. I appreciate the pantheistic approach. I am somewhat pagan, with a generic sense of deity emanating from everything.
Thank you for adding to a positive impression of religion.
Thanks, Garnet! I was just exploring your blog http://glitteringstew.com/muse/ -- it looks great! I look forward to exploring it further.
