It is interesting to note that in previous posts the "Emergent" church movement here is agreed to be a "house church" movement. A rudimentary study of the movement shows it to be just about anything and everything. White Horse Inn host Michael Horton says trying to define the movement is like trying to nail jello to the wall. McLaren is just one of many who are identified with this movement. Here in Grand Rapids, Michigan area we have Mars Hill Bible church and Rob Bell, also recognized to be "emergent"...with 10,000 in attendance there each week in a remodeled shopping mall it would hardly qualify as a house church.
Rob Bell's book 'Velvet Elvis' is pathetic. It questions just about every orthodox teaching of the true Christian Church.
