Better Late Than Never

Bill Kinnon wrote a brilliant blog post entitled The People Formerly Known As The Congregation recently, which has sparked many corroborating posts from other bloggers, and not a few rebuttals, as well. In other words, an extremely effective post: it got everyone thinking, whether they appreciated it or not. Bill links to many of them in his post -- whether pro or con. Many HT's to you, Bill!

So, robbymac is late to the party on Bill's (and everyone else's) posts, but better late than never, n'est-ce pas?
I was inspired by Bill et al's posts to add another page to my website-within-a-blog, Detoxing From Church. Entitled simply Reconstruction, it preserves Bill & Co's recent posts, as well as highlighting links to sites that I've long endorsed here, Friend of Missional and Missional Apologetics.
I love the sub-text of this past week or so, as bloggers all over the world have contributed their voices to create resources that are truly greater than the sum of the parts.

Looks, tastes, and smells like the sweet savor of community to me!

John,

You're welcome, and thanks for putting all blood, sweat, and tears into the Missional Apologetics site. It's much-needed, and I hope it will continue to be a resource for many in the months and years to come.

Robbymac,
Thanks for the props and the linkage. DFC is a great addition to your blog. Your original essay and soon to be a book, Post-Charismatic, had a profound impact on me when you first published the essay. (Looking forward to the book. Would love to read the galleys.)

My post was a product of the detoxing I've been going through - and the conversations here, at Subversive Influcence, Jamie's blog, Emerging Grace, Rick's blog, John S's blog, etc.

It's a very interesting time to be alive.

You, Brother Maynard and I should do a conference call at some point soon.

Rick,

You are more than welcome. I'm loving how much the blogosphere has been team-blogging without even trying (ie. my detox stuff, Bill's gauntlet and the addendums created by Grace, etc.). Thank YOU again for your weighty contribution with Friend of Missional.

Bill,

Yes, these are interesting and exciting times to be alive, and to have the opportunity to cross-pollinate with each other and collectively find a way forward.

We're not at "galleys" yet; editing is well under-way, but then the SENIOR editor gets a shot at it, and after that, I have absolutely no idea! But it's been an interesting and enjoyable process as well.

Maynard or you are probably better equipped on the technical end of setting up a conference call. Maynard already offered to set it up, so I guess we'll just have to connect with him and work out availability. I look forward to it!!

Beyond The Dimensions,

You're welcome! Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. Always glad to "meet" new people here!
