Emerging Church Symposium: As you know, the Emerging Church movement has been gaining momentum in Evangelical circles. Is it possible that it has made inroads into the Seventh-day Adventist Church? Our movement survived the alpha of apostasy during the Kellogg years, yet we were told the omega would be much worse. Could this be the omega of apostasy? “Operation Iceberg" was formed to educate our people on the dangers of emergent theology. On October 17 and 18th, we will host a symposium of speakers, who are dedicated to sharing the truth about this subject. Please join us for the following messages:
Friday, October 17th: 6:30pm: Steve Wohlberg - "The Emerging Church Controversy within Adventism”; 7:30pm: Janet Neumann - “A Church in Change?”
Sabbath, October 18th: 11:00am: Allen Davis - “The Power of the Everlasting Gospel”; 1:30pm: Alexa Hernandez - “Adventism’s Emergence"; 2:30pm: David Fielder - “When All Else Fails”; 3:30pm: Gerry Wagoner - “The New Evangelism”
In addition to the speakers above, Stephen Bohr and Dustin Butler will join the group for a town hall panel beginning at 4:30pm. This will be an opportunity to gain deeper insight into the issues as the speakers discuss more specific concerns and also field questions from the audience. The program will be live streamed and CDs & DVDs will be made available for ordering. We look forward to seeing you there!
