Emerging Church in Orkney

I just returned from the Orkney Islands and 3 wonderful days learning about all things emerging, emergent and organic church related by picking the brain of postmodern pilgrim Andrew Jones. Andrew is a dynamic walking encyclopedia of the history of the emerging church movement, and I learned much by peppering him with questions while following him about his routine...including how to build a chicken coop and how to brew beer from ancient Orcadian Barley. He also pointed me to some interesting web sites related to the emerging church including emergent village and next-wave.org. More information on emerging church to follow...
