Emerging Stories

Emerging Adventism – possibilities?

"Although there is widespread misunderstanding of emerging church – and valid criticisms – the principles, when applied with care, may provide Seventh-day Adventism with new frames and expressions within which the Adventist message and mission could flourish in postmodern societies. Contrary to popular opinion, postmodernism may be less a threat to the church than modernism has been." You can get the full text of Church Next: what could emerging Adventism look like? a workshop presented by Peter Roennfeldt at the Australian Council of Adventist Pastors on February 8 at Avondale College by leaving a note in comments. The next generations are disconnecting from church, some are leaving church to be Church, and new expressions of church are emerging – whether we like it or not. Church planters, pastors and denominational leaders cannot afford to neglect emerging church.
