thanks to James at think christian for the tip to these interesting thoughts from Keith Drury, professor at Indiana Wesleyan University, about why boomers have a tendancy to resist the emerging church.

Hmm, interesting reading. I have floated it to the team that I work with. Our boss has done all the Po-Mo reading of late, as he believes in being informed before casting aspersions. He’s reading Carson at the moment and it should undoubtedly ignite some interesting conversation. He’s a Boomerskeptic. As in skeptical of Emergent (the philosopy, not the specific organization). It will be interesting to see how this fetters his reading..
I’m really ennoying your blog, Marko.

Comment by bob c 07.26.05 @ 10:24 amCool stuff marko. If there’s one thing I love about what the Church could be, it’s to have unity across the age barrier.
Comment by Jeffrey 07.26.05 @ 1:44 pmI’m 50, Brian McLaren is what, 49? Most of my friends, many of whom are older than I - solidly boomer demographically - are equally passionate about the emerging church. I’ve been searching for these changes since I first became a Christian back in 1978. Please don’t lump all us boomers in the same outdated camp.

Prof. Drury’s thoughts are very insightful from the “other” side
