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.You can read Tony’s obituary of Phyllis here: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/phyllis-tickle-rest-in-pe_b_8183642Music by The Cobalt Season (compliments of Ryan Sharp), Solomon’s Porch (compliments of Ben Johnson)Emerged is a crowdfunded project.
