The blog and the emerging church

This past week, blurbs on the National Council of Churches’ 2006 Yearbook Sidebar popped up various places on the Web (I first ran across it at World Wide Faith Network here). The gist of the brief piece is to note the power of the blog to advance dialogue and communication between like thinkers. (Plus, let me tell you, it’s just, well, plain fun.) It also lists a variety of blog sites it says are used by emerging church folks to discuss ideas and such. I’m not sure what criteria they used for some of these, but, um, okay. I’ve collected and listed them below.* Have fun:
