Hooray . . . A New Label from Barna

Okay, so that post title sounds really cynical, but the Barna article to which I'm referring is actually pretty interesting. (And I just happen to be growing especially tired of evangelical Christianity's preoccupation with labels.) The article is a summary of Barna's latest book, Revolution. Really, he just seems to be writing about the disillusionment of many Christ-followers in the U.S. (though it's happening all over western society) and the subsequent search for new forms of church that go beyond the status quo of most American evangelical "Christendom" churches. Could be an interesting read, especially in light of Barna's statistic/polling expertise, though I've got a growing "to read" list of books that will probably go deeper theologically than Barna's usual fare. I'm sure this one will be widely discussed throughout the blogosphere.

Thanks to Kristy for the link. Wait a minute - you're supposed to be shopping for wedding dresses with your mom today, not passing along blog fodder. =)
