I’m linking an article written March 25th by Mark Sayers about how he believes the Emerging Missional Church has fractured into mini-movements. I tend to agree with the article but struggle as I find myself spread across several of his categorizations. And maybe that’s his problem, his mini-movements are not defined or structured with the appropriate amount of specificity.
Here are his mini-movements:
- Neo-Anabaptists
- Neo-Calvinists
- Neo-Missiologists
- Neo-Clapham’s
- Digital Pentecostals
- Neo-Liberals
- Blenders
I find myself spread across the neo-calvinists, neo-missiologists, and blenders (to an extent). You can find his definitions and the entire article here.
