Heaven's Highway: After Emergent - the Post Emergent Church?

Here's an interesting post worth checking out:

Heaven's Highway: After Emergent - the Post Emergent Church?

Preview:
There's a lot of narcissism going on with Western Christianity. We are more into navel-gazing theology and self-centered systematics than ever before. We want the Church to be what we want and if we do not find the right shape to fit our individual soul, we'll make it into whatever pleases us or we'll go and start a new one.

Western Christianity is dying on the vine right now and we're scrambling to find the last great hope to make us relevant, effective, and heard. Elsewhere in the world, Christianity is thriving because people know that our faith is really about life and death, not lifestyle and dying traditions.

I have to say I like a lot of what Stushie (John Stuart) has to say even if we are on different sides of the pole and spectrum theologically wise.
