CROSSOVER: DOUG PAGITT AND JOHN SHELBY SPONG

By Ken Silva

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths. (2 Timothy 4:3-4, NASB)

Professing To Be Wise They Became Fools

Apprising Ministries has been pointing out that with the arrival of A New Kind Of Christianity (AKNoC), the latest book by Brian McLaren, we’re seeing some Dissention Growing Around The Emerging Church. In what’s beginning to look like a major tactical error, in AKNoC McLaren, unquestionably a leading theologian in the sinfully ecumenical Emerging Church aka Emergent Church—that morphed into Emergence Christianity—(EC), finally has begun clearly stating his reimagined ( i.e. post) form of liberal theology aka Progessive Christianity, which so many in the EC have actually adhered to all along.

With this backdrop I now bring to your attention a very telling interview with John Shelby Spong conducted by EC leader Doug Pagitt December 20 on his Doug Pagitt Radio program. Interestingly enough Spong, who’s billed as a Champion of progressive Christianity, has an upcoming appearance in something called The Sacred Awakening Series from the The Shift Network, which is dedicated “to our Evolution.” Click here to listen to the interview and to read more.
