oh.my.word.
Who runs this blog? I'm stunned and amazed. Who seriously spends their time and energy with this? Everything they bemoan has largely informed who I am... all of the authors and the practices -- especially brother Roger and Taize. whew. big frustrated sigh. Why do we so quickly point fingers within the Body of Christ and make accusations and live in fear when perfect love drives out and has already driven out fear...?
This article just makes me sad. They're missing the point of all of these authors and the friends mentioned in it who have been shaped by these authors.
...love.
And so too I'm challenged to love even (and especially) those I disagree with here... but I gotta' say I'm still frustrated about it.... I mean come on.

I read this when you first wrote it, and have been thinking about it a lot since... I did some exploring on that Lighthouse Trails website, and the whole thing is such a trip. I've also been researching doctrines and beliefs of my own Presbyterian Church versus the Nazarene Church and Contemplative Christianity and the Emerging Church... it just leads to more questions. I'm having lunch with one of my pastors today to talk about it. I don't know anything, Marte! I just believe in Jesus!
