An Emerging Institution?

So, this happened.

I'm not sure how I feel about it. Should Emergent have a full time paid staff? I've always felt that one of the strengths of Emergent was that even its highest leadership had lives in the local church. Will Tony stop going to church? Obviously not. But he is now in the position of working for an Emergent that is itself becoming an institution. Something just seems off about it. I may write more about this later.
