Emergent Manifesto of Hope Despair Revisited—How It Has Affected Today’s Church

March 10, 2020 by Lighthouse Trails Editors 9 Comments

In 2007, Lighthouse Trails wrote a book review on a book titled Emergent Manifesto of Hope. Today, thirteen years later, we are seeing the “fruit” of the emergent church (that, incidentally, was spawned by leaders like Rick Warren, Bob Buford, and Bill Hybels as is documented in Faith Undone by Roger Oakland). The so-called fruit … [Read more…]

By Roger Oakland You may not have heard the term before, but contextual theology is a prominent message from the emerging church. In his book, Models of Contextual Theology(1992), Stephen B.

Letter to the Editor: “Christian” Homosexual Singer Vicky Beeching Thanks Contemplative Spirituality For Helping Her “Come Out”

June 15, 2017 by Letters to the Editor Leave a Comment

Dear Lighthouse Friends, When I searched your blog, I did not find information on “Vicky Beeching.”  She is apparently a big figure in Christian pop music.  So you might want to put her on your blog list. I did not know about Vicky Beeching until yesterday: claiming to be an evangelical Christian, she revises Scripture … [Read more…]

The “Kingdom of God” in the Emerging Church: A Theology of Despair and Hopelessness

June 5, 2015 by Lighthouse Trails Editors

By Bob DeWaay Imagine a world where the polarity of time is reversed so that history moves backward toward Paradise rather than forward toward judgment.

A Utopian Kingdom and Global Healing?

July 18, 2013 by Lighthouse Trails author

by Roger Oakland  The emerging church talks a lot about the kingdom of God on earth, but in language and philosophy much different from the Bible.

Question to the Editor: What’s Up with Lilly Endowment – Funding Pastoral Sabbaticals with a Contemplative Agenda

March 25, 2013 by Lighthouse Trails Editors

To Lighthouse Trails: Eli Lilly, a major pharmaceutical company, in conjunction with Christian Theological Seminary (a liberal seminary in Indianapolis, IN) is funding pastoral sabbaticals.  It appears it is just a part of a national program.

Eucharistic Adoration and the Emerging Church

Contextual Theology – Falling From Truth Through the Emerging Church

January 10, 2010 by Lighthouse Trails author

  by Roger Oakland In order for the emerging church to succeed, the Bible has to be looked at through entirely different glasses, and Christianity needs to be open to a new type of faith.

Doug Pagitt’s New Book – A Christianity Worth Believing – NOT Worth Believing

October 21, 2009 by Guest Writers

  by Ezra McGill Free-lance writer In his book, A Christianity Worth Believing, emergent leader Doug Pagitt presents a theology that is worth exposing, because it is neither biblical nor Christian.
