It seems like a line has been drawn in the sand. My present church will do better to continue pursuing its current direction of ministry to a modern crowd in various states of transition to the postmodern. I, however, am hopelessly lost to the modern church, and therefore, will be of only limited value to my current place of ministry. I will help them in their transitional thoughts, but it's doubtful that I will do much beyond that. We are moving along different wavelengths - sometimes the paths will cross, but usually not. While they help transition people away from modernity, I will need to pursue a more distictly postmodern direction. I will do this without apology, realizing all the while that there will likely be a parting of ways soon. This is an uncomfortable thought because of my love for them, but it is inevitable.
