To answer my own question...
I Wikied it:
The emergent church seeks
to engage postmodern people, especially the unchurched and post-churched. To accomplish this, "emerging Christians" or "emergents" seek to deconstruct and reconstruct Christian beliefs, standards, and methods to fit in the postmodern mould. Proponents of this movement call it a "conversation" to emphasize ( Read more... ) -

What a nutsy week!
