Yes, there’s much to criticize about “purpose driven/emerging church”
WHEN they deviate from the priorities and truths of The Gospel and Scripture . . . which in some cases is quite sadly considerable.
The apostate traditional church has been off the track for decades.
I don’t know that the purpose driven/emerging church stuff has been wholesale off the track in all respects from the beginning. I think major chunks have wandered more and more off track. Some may be making some healthy adjustment. We shall see.

Anyway—I mostly agree with your post.
Thanks.
Up North we have thunder and lightning in snow storms. Not so weird here.
