The Muncie Emergent Cohort group provides a forum to discuss how to be a Christian in a postmodern world. We invite conversation from anyone who is interested in doing church in new/ancient/different/rediscovered ways that are meaningful and life-changing for folks who may not buy into the modern American church status quo.
While part of our purpose is discuss issues that confront the emerging church, that is not all we are. Our bigger purpose is to provide a rich forum where anyone can explore or deepen their faith outside a conventional church setting by getting together with others who are “independent Christian thinkers”.
Our hope for this group is that we can support those who are trying to practice being “a new kind of Christian” in their current churches, in new churches that they’re starting, and in ways that might be independent of the established church. Since folks with different/new (to us, at least) ways of thinking about church sometimes have a hard time finding folks who share their thinking, this group is a great place to connect with others who have ideas of what the emerging/postmodern church might look like.
In addition, if you are involved in some kind of emerging church activities, we would love to hear about it. Especially since most of us haven’t had the chance to see it in practice. We highly encourage you to post your experiences/resources to our message boards.
In short–this is a place to share ideas about what the church and Christianity can be.
