It’s Not Just “Them”

As I have been considering the lack of Spirit within the Emerging Church conversation, I have taken some time to check out some of the Emerging websites that I used to frequent and I have noticed something really interesting: there’s absolutely nothing going on.  One of the sites hasn’t had a new post since at least the beginning of November.  And that site used to be pretty cool and had a lot of interesting stuff on it, but if you look back over the archived homepages, you find less and less content until today when…well…there’s nothing new.

I think this is symptomatic of the greater issue within the movement of the lack of the Holy Spirit playing an active role.  But I’ve noticed the same trend, in a generalized sense, within the Christian community as a whole.  It seems the edginess of Gospel presentation is just gone.
