8. Paul Emerson Teusner - AoIR 9.0 Andrew Jones was the equivalent of the Pope in the international Emerging Church conversation. Surely!? The nature of âemergingâ is that most people involved in the grassroots could not care less about who is blogging, publishing, speaking, or leading excellent worship experiences in high profile events. Duncan - Pacific highlander 9 August 2006
9. Paul Emerson Teusner - AoIR 9.0 According to this list of the Top 50 emerging church blogs, this blog is just not influential. Based on their method, this page should have been clinging to the bottom of the list. [...] So why point it out? Well it isnât to complain about not making the list, Iâm not much into lists and infact think it is a little worrying when church bloggers obsess about them. The thing a number of A-Listers wonât admit is that a bit of their linkeage comes from people desperate to generate traffic for their own blogs. Fernando - Fernando's desk 19 July 2006 Hefty praise from Mr No.1 on Technorati! :) Hamo - backyard missionary 30 July 2006
10. Paul Emerson Teusner - AoIR 9.0 I love a lot of things about the "emerging church" movement. I've written various things on this here site that could be construed as a bit EC. I'm even #133 on the technorati emerging church blog listing. But... Dave - Aropax nation 4 August 2006 ahem . . . testing one, two, three does anyone know anything about this blogshares thing? while checking out where readers were coming from, I discovered this site that lists the X facta as being in the top 100 blogs in Melbourne my share price is a little sad :( but hey, it's not every day you get to say you're on a top 100 blog list :) Kel - X facta 13 September 2006
11. Attitude to church authority Paul Emerson Teusner - AoIR 9.0 The Uniting Church understands leadership very differently to this. Our prevailing model of leadership formation is for a âmodernâ, linear form of leadership. [...] Part of that conversation needs to involve a reinterpretation of the role of ministers as leaders⊠and an âimaginingâ of how leaders - who arenât the minister - can emerge within a congregation. Cheryl - [hold :: this space] 29 September 2006
12. Paul Emerson Teusner - AoIR 9.0 Mary Hess (Tensegrities) made a very interesting comment here recently, â⊠historical theology has far too narrowly conceived what we mean by theology, and in doing so cut huge numbers of people out of the conversation.â I think Mary is right. Fernando - Fernando's desk 22 August 2006 we had the video and music and compared quotes of Kurt Cobain & Marilyn Manson favourably with Jesus and quotes by Fred Nile favourably with the Pharisees. So kind of different but kind of similar. Chris - A churchless faith 2 September 2006
13. Own authority Paul Emerson Teusner - AoIR 9.0 Thanks for the link Hamo! Iâve never really considered myself a blogger of much importance (especially compared to many on your list) and I wasnât really pushing to get my site linked (honestly!), itâs just when you had the âblogs I admit to readingâ list I liked the idea of being in the âblogs I donât admit to readingâ list. Anyway, thanks for including me - appreciate it. :) Chris - backyard missionary 31 August 2006 Â But don't just take my word for it. Read some other voices. Here's just one: http:// hannahim.com/blog/category/emerging/ Matt Stone - eclectic itchings 23 July 2006
14. Paul Emerson Teusner - AoIR 9.0 Iâm not really part of the official emerging church networks and definately not being invited into the talking-shops either. However, I have been thinking about the missional, flat eccllesiological thing for over a decade now. More importantly, Iâve been doing it, trying it and playing with it for as long. Iâve run an academic reading group discussing Zizek, Baudrillard and al the usual suspects, given academic papers on theology and film, run a campus faith and film group, and so on.

16. Paul Emerson Teusner - AoIR 9.0 â We donât really have popular culture anymore, so much as a fragmented market crowded with expertly segmented, mutually hostile opposing camps of various forms of unpopular culture.â Mark Steyn Fernando - Fernando's desk 18 August 2006 I guess I'm on of the postmodern Xns that Tom Lyberg speaks about when he says... Â "Slowly some postmodern Xns are rediscovering the Jesus who yelled at God for abandoning him on the cross. [...]â Chris - A churchless faith 5 July 2006
