Contents:
Introduction / Phil Snider -- Innovating with integrity : exploring the core and innovative edges of postmodern ministry / Nadia Bolz-Weber -- Monocultural church in a hybrid world / Stephanie Spellers -- A new day rising in the church / Elaine A. Heath -- Why Luthermergent? because we always have been and better be now and forevermore, or we probably aren't really Lutheran / Nate Framback -- Satanism in the suburbs : ordination as insubordination / Chrisopher D. Rodkey -- Net-a-narratives : the evolution of the story in our culture, philosophy, and faith / Carol Howard Merritt -- The imperative of imagination / Nanette Sawyer -- The postmodern pan and the foreverneverland / Matthew Gallion -- Peekaboo Jesus : looking for an emergent savior in a post-christendom culture / Ross Lockhart -- Mobius operandi : ambiguity and the challenge of radical discipleship / Brandon Gilvin -- Emerging form the lectionary / Emily Bower -- Improvising with tradition : a case (self) study / Timothy Snyder -- Emerging from the Jersey Shore : secular, generational, and theological frontiers / Mike Baughman -- Afterward : all in the fmaily / Doug Pagitt.
Summary: Though the emergent church was once viewed as a fringe movement with little to offer established congregations, it is now seen as one of the central driving forces shaping the future of postmodern Christianity in North America. As an increasing number of mainline communities wonder how the emergent church influences their own structures and practices, this book brings together the perspectives of several of the most prominent?Hyphenated Christians,? i.e. those with one foot in the emergent conversation and the other foot in the mainline church? Presbymergents, Anglimergents, Luthermergents, Methomergents, etc. With a passion for both mainline traditions and the emergent conversation,?Hyphenateds? offer a vibrant and contagious vision of the ways in which the church might undergo the transformation necessary to faithfully embody the love of Christ in the midst of an ever-changing postmodern world. The contributors of this book offer wisdom from a variety of contexts and The Hypenateds reflects the changing dynamics currently taking place in the emergent conversation.
