On my travels I’ve observed that the Emerging Chruch movement & Postmodern Christianity seem to have no place outside young middle-class christendom subcultures. It removes barriers for a few educated already-Christians, but is it helpful for anyone else outside this narrow population strata? (or thin ice perhaps?)

In a time when we should be seeking relevancy in a society distancing itself from God is this approach effective at bridging the gap, or does it further the gap, alienating yet more people by camouflaging the only recognisable icons of true divine rescue in a land of false gods and idols?

Is this new approach just a fashion? Another bandwagon to jump on that distracts us from the real task at hand? Is it really effective? Or is it the future for Christianity? Or perhaps you have no idea what I’m talking about!? There’s a poll on the right there, so just vote away - it’s all anonymous, unless you leave a comment…. Either way, YOU decide!
