Thanks, Carla

Carla includes me on a list of bloggers who have made an impact on her this year:

Darryl @ Dash House. Now this one might surprise you. Darryl is unapologetically sympathetic to the emergent church movement, while I am diametrically opposed to pretty much 98% of what they're all about. Some may even say Darryl himself is 'emergent'. Either way, of all the people that have responded to my critique of EC at ENo, Darryl has by far been the most gracious, and Christlike example of someone who can disagree and do it with dignity.

Carla, you might get along well with my brother, who told me yesterday, tongue in cheek, that he didn't know why Richview hadn't fired me and my emergent views yet. That's probably a subject for a whole other post.

(My brother David was on a bit of a tear yesterday. That's when I love talking to him the most.)

Seriously, thanks for the honor, and I'm learning from you too. I suspect if we ever meet we'll find we like each other, and probably agree on a lot of issues too.

I'm not surprised, Darryl diplomat!

You have a very gracious manner mate. You must be one of those 'pastoral' guys. I have noticed the way you have related to these guys too.

I won't pretend to have anywhere near the kind of patience you do! And... I'll leave it at that :)

Maybe your brother is right or you're just afraid to be dogmatic about anything.
