Emerging Church Movement and Dissonance
This chapter explores the emergence of the questioning and vocal emerging church movement in the late 90s, fueled by the disillusionment arising from inconsistencies between preached beliefs and behavior. It discusses the dissonance experienced by Gen Xers in large evangelical churches and their search for something that suited their social context. The chapter also delves into the experiences of the speakers, including attending conferences, interacting with assistant professors, and the influence of pop culture like Star Trek on their reevaluation of truth.
