Phyllis Tickle is a name that you should know. She wrote a couple of books and her new book the Great Emergence. There will also be a conference by that name December 5 & 6 in Memphis. If you go, register here through Adam Cleveland’s blog, pomomusings, to help send him for free.
If you’re like me, and you are either not rich enough to buy every book that is suggested on a blog, you can check out some of her writing here that she did for belief net during Lent.
To hear the kindness in her voice, listen to this podcast when she was interviewed by Tony Jones. After listening to this it, I have renewed my infatuation with wanting to host a theology discussion group that meets occasionally in some tavern/pub. In some ways, it’s the emergent cohort. But for those not interested in the emergent conversation (you don’t have to be and that’s part of what makes it emergent and a conversation), I’d love to do this in some future season of life.
