There is a fresh wind blowing through the church these days. Church leaders and theologians are banding together to help contextualize the Christian faith for the emerging postmodern era. The movement to rethink faith in this light has been dubbed "Emergent". While the label "emergent" is somewhat slippery, there are some unique features of what makes a church "emergent". Click here for links to the wide diversity of churches in North America and Europe that could, in some sense, be classified as "emergent".
A list of European churches is yet to come. For now, here are some from North America.
