24hrs in the emerging church

'Emerging Churches: creating christian community in postmodern cultures' is the result of 5 years research by Eddie Gibbs and Ryan Bolger. At the end of Ryan's 1 week tour of the UK as part of the CMS blah... programme, some key folks from Uk emerging churches got together for 24hrs to engage in conversation with Ryan and each other.

We were there to bring you a taster of the discussion that took place.
