EMC and Michael Franti …
A reader sent this note and a link to the video below. It's fascinating how many people have seen the same connection.
Hello Brian, I have been reading your book and it is helping me keep up the pace of effecting change in my small world. It is all about perspective how we see the value of our relationship with the Father Son and Holy Spirit. Our only option is to be involved. Here is a youtube I saw after someone had sent me one from this artist. I thought of your book and thought I would share. Peace in Christ,

Fr. Richard Rohr gets it right … on Emerging Church
It seems to me that the emerging church is emerging because people are finding the ability to have a grateful foot in both camps—on in the Tradition (the mother church) along with another foot inside of a support group that parallels, deepens, broadens, grounds, and personalizes the traditional message. But you don’t throw out the traditional message, or you have to keep rebuilding the infrastructure or creating a superstructure all over again.

Q & R: EMC, war and competition
Here's the Q:
Brian, I just recently finished EMC. It hit me so hard that I decided to go back re-read The Secret Message, which did not nearly have the effect on me that EMC has. I did not grow up in the church but began a relationship with Christ when I was 18.... Most of the first ... years of my relationship with Christ centered on fundamentalist teachings and eternal-life-after-death dogma. However, over the course of the past nine years my theological thoughts and beliefs have taken a gradual, yet radical transition. If the primary catalyst for this transition is not your books they have at least played a very important role. All of this said, I had two questions.
The first question is one I asked my fiancee last night ... while I was reading The Secret Message. Do you believe that war is ever justafiable?
