Why Did Chuck Colson Re-think the Emerging Church?

0

Chuck Colson may have given a clue as to his change in heart regarding the emerging church. His new book The Faith: What Christians Believe, Why They Believe It and Why It Matters was not supposed to have rolled off the press until February. However Colson said he was able to convince his publisher to advance the book to the fast track and speed up the printing process so the book would be available when he spoke at Saddleback earlier in the month of January. It was not hard for me to do some simple deductions. You see, the publisher for Colsons new book is Zondervan, owned by Rupert Murdoch (one of the presenters at the Re-think Conference). Murdochs company publishes many emerging books as well as purpose driven books. The fact that Murdochs pastor is Rick Warren of Saddleback cannot be ignored. No wonder the book by Colson was given priority. Wondering While we may never know for sure, I cannot help but wonder if Chuck Colsons new take on the emerging church has anything to do with
