Welcome to Presbymergent.org!
Welcome to presbymergent.org, the online community for those involved in the Presbyterian (USA) church and in the Emergent conversation. Many would agree that while the Emergent conversation may have first begun among evangelicals, the conversation is moving into the Mainline/Traditional church world as well. Next week, Columbia Theological Seminary will host the Mainline Emergent/s event, a conversation about Theology, Practice and Hope.
It is our hope that this website will serve as a portal for all who are interested in connecting with Presbyterian and emerging pastors, leaders and lay people who are interested in and wrestling with how to live in and work in a “presbymergent” world. We hope that people will share their stories and thoughts.

I am excited about finding this web site. Have been a long time member and elder in the pcusa but have been exploring the emergent movement. I would really love to have help in how to get an emergent movement started in my own congregation. Thanks

Wow!! Sounds like a great idea for a website! I’m a fairly young Presbyterian pastor who walks in both worlds–Presbyterian and emergent. I’m looking forward to seeing and being part of the conversations on this site.
