This title provides samplings of online discussions about God, truth, and church - from theOoze.com. Our culture is rapidly changing and people are searching for new models and paradigms to find meaning in their lives. As in all transitional periods, this search takes place in grass-roots conversations where the new is taking form. No other place so uniquely captures this struggle more than the message boards at theOoze.com, the premier melting pot of emerging spiritual conversation. Making Sense of Church is a snapshot of this community conversation as it tries to make sense of God in the emerging worldview. It represents a gathering of individuals with different points of view, theologies, life contexts, and feelings. Author Spencer Burke, creator of theOoze.com, provides the framework writing for each chapter and acts as a guide to the accompanying e-mail postings that supplement the chapters. Subjects discussed include: Authentic Community; Experiential Worship; The Internet and God; Art as a Vehicle for Communicating Truth; Spirituality and Sexuality; What Is the Church? And what Is Postmodernism?
