Everything Much Change? Maybe they'll fix that typo...
"Emergent folks," Clawson explained, "tend not to be as phobic about supernaturalism as classic mainline liberals [e.g. needing to "demythologize" the Bible, cast doubt on miracles, or redefine the Resurrection], but at the same time, we're not locked into a rigid biblical literalism either. There's an openness to rethinking a lot of core evangelical beliefs, but not necessarily settling for the liberal answers either."

The problem is that, this crap is spreading over on a huge amount of good evangelical churches.
Also, he is in league with New Agers, and has abandoned the "Faith" once delivered. He has created his own religion which is Christian in name only [CINO].
His associates, to be avoided also, include Doug Pagitt, Rob Bell, [who are joining the Dalai Lama this month in an "interspiritual" event,]and Tony Jones.
Social Gospel is not Christianity. They can preach it along with Christianity but it is not a substitute.
Best I have heard about his “Deep Shift” is that there is a typo there as well. Musta fat-fingered it.
McClaren is building bridges - from here to hell. Everything will be made most clear once a man dies. Too late for the deceived.
KEEP AWAY
Sung to "Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross"
Jesus, keep me from the cross;
Be more understanding.
Free to all -- it better be;
Thus I am demanding.
(everbody now!) From the cross, from the cross!
I am ill-at-ease!
I would rather have to learn
Mandarin Chinese.
Jesus, keep me from the cross;
It's a bit too gory.
If you want some relevance,
Tell a diff'rent story.
From the cross, etc.
Jesus, keep me from the cross;
I must keep my distance.
I think I can find my own
Path of least resistance.
From the cross, etc.
