Bill Hull’s passion has been to help the church return to its disciple making roots and he considers himself a discipleship evangelist. This God-given desire has manifested itself in twenty years of pastoral service and the authorship of ten books. His first book, Jesus Christ Disciplemaker, is celebrating 20 years with a new edition. The Disciple Making Pastor and the Disciple Making Church are two successive books which make up his popular disciple making trilogy. These books have provided the church with a new paradigm for disciple making.
Bill, I like your openness toward those who may be thinking, or at least questioning a bit different to what you are! Well done!
Perhaps 'the faith once delivered to the saints" has been intrpreted according to some peoples base of reference and Brians questioning it actually has nothing to do with any disagreement with 'the faith' but with some peoples interpretation of it?
Perhaps all of us need to ask questions instead of acting like mindless sheep and merely going with the flow?
By the way, at almost 50 years old, I am not what one woud consider a youngster merely seeking something new!
I think what a lot (not all) of this whole emergent group is about is what you spoke of in the Bible Rots blog. (by the way I have copied that onto some of my sites, it really is good stuff!)
Having said that, I am also of the opinion that a lot of what emergent is about is just a rehash of what Wycliffe Bible Translators, Open Doors and a number of other Mission groups have been saying for years. It is a pity that it took a new name for people to wake up to it!
