Descriptions about the emerging church from the emerging church people themselves, writings by emerging folks themselves (both theologically liberal and theologically conservative), and the critiques of the emerging church. The emerging church is broad and the emergent church is an organization headed up by Tony Jones. Here are some of the books and articles that I would recommend:<BR/><BR/>Reformed Evangelical Emerging:<BR/> <BR/>Confessions of a Reformission Rev.: Hard Lessons from an Emerging Missional Church by Mark Driscoll (Paperback - April 12 2006)<BR/><BR/>The Radical Reformission: Reaching Out Without Selling Out by Mark Driscoll (Paperback - Sep 16 2004)<BR/><BR/>Multi-perspectives:<BR/><BR/>Listening to the Beliefs of Emerging Churches: Five Perspectives by Mark Driscoll, John Burke, and Robert E.
