Nice looking site for emergentvillage.com, which reminds me a little of Willzhead blog. But unfortunately i have been EXCOMMUNICATED from the listing of Emergent leaders.
The old site had me proudly on the team of Senior Fellows, with a link, a Bio, and lots of impressive scholastic achievements. But the new site apparently doesn’t know where to place me – I am not living in America anymore, as I was when i HELPED TO FORM Emergent and its earlier incarnations. And i am not really assigned to a particular country since i wander too much.
Thus, I am no longer on the site. Either that, or the fact that a few days ago i said that emergent is just one of the emerging church networks in USA, not the sum of them.
However, I will not take this personally. I still LOVE all those people. Even if they don’t love me . . . . {sob) But I will not think on it at all. Not at all. Right . . . . pull myself together. . . . , get off the floor, change my hanky, and get on with the day.
UPDATE: Good news
Ah, the thrill of victory (inclusion as a senior fellow, nice pic and bio) and the agony of defeat (noninclusion from the updated web site). Maybe senior fellows don’t fit into the lovely bubble-like diagram describing the non-structure of the non-movement? 🙂 I can’t help but smile. Don’t weep too long, I am sure you will be restored to your rightful “super-friend” (remember David Hopkin’s article?) status….In the meantime I guess you’ll have to de-emerge? This is a new word that I am trying out…It has a kind of turtle in the shell connotation, doesn’t it….
Blessings,

The man without a home–so sad. We should probably get ahold of your enormous red-haired friend and see what he can do about that.
Does that mean you lose your “Superfriend” membership as well and the 10% discount card?
there probabally just holding out till they create the “super cool traveling dude link” to include you
maybe they heard you were a commonist…
hey – shudddduuppp . . you lamers!
Pomergent. It’s a slippery combination of postmodern and emergent.
Or is it a slippery shorthand for “post-emergent”?
Welcome to the ranks of the anonymous! 🙂
