Emerged Tripp Fuller, Tony Jones, Josh Gilbert

In this episode of Emerged, we are joined by Anthony Smith, a Pentecostal minister, local activist, EV Cohort leader, town councilman, and Theo-blogger at Musings of a Postmodern Negro. This long-time leader of the ECM shares his personal journey, highlighting how questions of race, class, and identity politics changed the movement. The discussion also delves into the significance of local cohorts as community spaces and how the movement provided a liminal space for individuals navigating faith and culture.

From the beginning, church leaders criticized the Emerging Church Movement. At times painful, at other times laughable, it came from the right and the left. The critics took on what ECM leaders said and wrote, how they led churches, and even how they looked. And none were more the target of criticism than Brian McLaren, Doug Pagitt, and Nadia Bolz-Weber. In this episode, they get to hear clips of that criticism — some for the first time — and respond in real time. You'll hear what they learned, what they regret, and some never-before-told behind-the-scenes stories.

In 2011, Tripp sat down with Rachel Held Evans (1981-2019) to record some conversations for a project that never got off the ground. This never-before-heard audio provides a fascinating glimpse into what was going on in the church and the world — and in the head and heart of one of the most beloved Christian authors at the time. But it also reveals just how much has changed, and how no one in 2011 could have foreseen the political and cultural upheavals that would rock the evangelical church. Also joining us on this episode are Ryan Burge, to discuss those changes, and Nadia Bolz-Weber, to share what it was like to meet Rachel, befriend her, and lose her.

For all the talk about theology and postmodernism, for all the books and conferences, the heart of the Emerging Church Movement was always one thing: planting new churches. In this episode, we sit down for extended conversations with two ECM pastors: Tim Keel planted Jacob’s Well in Kansas City, and he’s now pastoring it toward its 25th anniversary, and Danielle Shroyer was the pastor at Journey in Dallas from 2005 to 2014. If you want an inside look at the life of a congregation in the movement, this is it.

The church was not emerging just in the US, but also around the world – and even in other religions. In this episode of Emerged, we take a tour around the globe, stopping to talk with leaders who emerged in the UK, South Africa, Malaysia, and Australia. Then we land the plane in Los Angeles to remember the historic meeting of emerging pastors and rabbis in 2006. Guests include Jonny Baker, Jason Clark, Peter Rollins, Graeme Codrington, Sivin Kit, Dave Andrews, Shawn Landres, and Sharon Brous.

Phyllis Tickle (1934-2015) was a force of nature. She was a poet, author, publisher, teacher, professor, and so much more. She was one of the leading experts on the church in America, and her Divine Hours books introduced a generation of Christians to fixed hour prayer. And in the mid-2000s, she became a leading ally for and advocate of the Emerging Church Movement. She seemed the unlikeliest emergent – a lay Anglican in her late 60s, hanging around with a bunch of disgruntled GenX evangelical pastors – but by the time her book, The Great Emergence, came out, she had established herself as a leading voice in the movement. And there can be no doubt that her stature earned the movement great credibility in the eyes of many who would have otherwise been dubious. Phyllis spent the final decade of her life preaching emergence, and in this episode, we examine her legacy. Guests include Jon Sweeney, Brian McLaren, Nadia Bolz-Weber and Diana Butler Bass.
