Driscoll on the Emerging Church

// January 10th, 2008 // Church Life

I’ve had several people ask me recently about the Emerging Church. It’s a question I get a lot.

I’m not an expert on the “movement”, but I’ve done a lot of reading about it because a lot of what they do intrigues me. It’s also very confusing since the labels seem to change all the time.

The clearest and most helpful thing I have heard on the topic is from Mark Driscoll. There was a conference in 2007 at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary where he did a thorough (and humbly direct) exposition on the topic. He was a part of things at the beginning (isn’t any longer) so his perspective is enlightening.

Here’s the Q&A – Thanks, Josh.
