Notes on Kevin DeYoung and Ted Kluck’s
\nWhy we Love the Church:
\nin praise of institutions and organized religion<\/i>
\nChapter 6 : Brief Interviews (Snapshots of Churched People)<\/h4>\n

“Sadly, there seems to be a ‘you’re either young, Reformed, and dogmatic or you’re emergent’ dichotomy forming, and it’s troubling.”
\n-Ted Kluck, Why We Love the Church<\/i>, page 144<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n\n
Young?<\/td>\n\"Check\" Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Reformed?<\/td>\n\"Check\"Leaning that way<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Dogmatic?<\/td>\n\"Check\"You tell me.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

The question is, do I gravitate towards this “side” of the dichotomy because I’ve thought it out and concluded that this side has it right–or am I simply reacting to what I see as the anti-intellectualism and political liberalism of the emergent side?<\/p>\n

O, that I would base my opinions and actions on Christ and what He has said rather than on belonging to a certain “camp” of beliefs.<\/p>\n
