- Historical overview of emergent
- moving to a church that is more relevant to postmodern culture.
- Deconstructionism (critical to emergence)
- What evangelism is not
- Evangelism as Deliberate (or intentional) Community
- Relationships vs. Rules
- Church fulfilling need for daily community
- Congregation as participant developers (open-source / prosumers) vs. listeners & followers
Evangelism in Emerging Culture
- It's all about community.
- So how do I...?
- Three options (IMHO):
- Join an Existing Community (best)
- Create One (good but hard)
- Transform an existing one into one (hardest, possibly inauthentic)

- New Model: leaders help congregation to produce AND consume
Technological Concepts and Trends

- Long Tail Church
- Open Source / Transparency
- Eyeballs & bugs
- Release Early & Release Often

Other Random Soapboxes (Ask With Caution)
- Truth, Truthiness, and Absolute Truth

- Why Folk Music and Hymns are Emergent. And Cool.
- ASCAP Sucks. So does Copyright.
- Most Christian Education is Neither Christian Nor Education
