Dear Editor,

I welcomed the December en, with your usual mix of useful and informative articles. However, I was uneasy about Barger’s article (p.18). He lumps together a variety of heretical ideas along with some perfectly innocuous terms, as symptoms of the Emergent Church. Any reader might label me as an adherent of such ideas, as I talk a lot about ‘Spiritual Formation’, but what I, and others, mean by that is training in such spiritual disciplines as having a daily quiet time, when one reads a portion of Scripture, not merely to acquire knowledge, but to apply its teaching to one’s life. Evangelicals have been observing such disciplines since the Reformation!
