A Brief Snapshot of the Emerging Church

Now here is something to think about. Ryan Bolger's brief snapshot of what characterizes an Emerging Church made me stop and ask: Do I believe that?

Much of what he says, I would affirm without question. But there is one area in particular where I wonder: do I believe in a "secular realm" distinct from the "spiritual" or "sacred" realm, or not? If so, does God's Kingdom embrace them both, or just the latter? Or does God's Kingdom overthrow the secular realm, so that if I am part of God's Kingdom then nothing remains secular? How would the way I live be different if I really believed that?

That's probably going to keep me wondering for some time.
