Chipper Chat- a page from my blog of a comprehensive list of books and websites for studying the emergent church movement. http://chipperchat.blogspot.com/2005/09/books-and-websites-for-researching.html

Christian Apologetics Research Ministry (CARM)- one of the best sites around for finding the truth about the emerging/emergent church. Nice searchable website.

Christianity Today Magazine- an article written in February 2007 which is a concise primer on the emergent/emerging church movement. Explains the key players in the movement, the premise, emergent village, etc. HOWEVER, the author aligns himself in the emerging church camp and this article needs to be read critically through a discerning eye. There are several problems with many, many of his assertions. I do not agree with this author nor share his belief system. Yes, we should share the Gospel but the Bible should never be read as, "What does this mean to me?" It should ONLY be read as, "What was God the author telling us." But it is a concise article explaining the terminology and the mindset of many of the movement's movers and shakers. http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2007/february/11.35.html

Living in the Way- podcast from September 1, 2008 approximately 45 minutes in length. Explains the error and danger of the emerging church movement.
