Rob Bell and Velvet Elvis

Rob Bell, pastor of Mars Hill Bible Church in Grandville Michigan is exerting a tremendous influence on the Evangelical world through his NOOMA video series. His recent book is titled Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith. Dale Van Dyke provides a helpful and brilliant critique of Bell's book and points out some disturbing thinking revealed in this book and that of the Emergent Church that we may not have picked up at first glance. I believe that this type of thinking is subverting the Evangelical world without us even realizing it. See:
