Some Emergent Websites of Note

With Doug Pagitt among the contributors to the Winter issue of Sharing the Practice, here are a couple of suggested web sites and blogs to take a look at. Chief among sites is Emergent Village (www.emergentvillage.com). This site is self-described as: “Emergent Village is a growing, generative friendship among missional Christians seeking to love our world in the Spirit of Jesus Christ.” It includes weblogs, podcasts, and more. This should be your first stop in researching the movement. And if you like video, try out Emerging Church TV (http://emergingchurch.tv) , where you’ll find video of Emergent figures such as Brian McLaren and Doug Pagitt. Of course you might want to check out Doug’s website and blog (http://dougpagitt.com). Other emergent leaders also have blogs, including that of Brian McLaren (www.brianmclaren.net) and Tony Jones (http://tonyj.net). So, if you’re interested these sites should quench your thirst for knowledge, at least for a moment.
