What does Emergent Village believe?

You won’t find a traditional statement of faith here. We don’t have a problem with faith, but with statements (read more here). Whereas statements of faith and doctrine have a tendency to stifle friendships, we hope to further conversation and action around the things of God.

Can I support Emergent Village financially?

Yes! Part of what we value is that we all contribute in many ways to the friendship we call Emergent Village. Financial contributions allow us to put on events, throw parties, maintain this website, publish books, and generally spread the good news that God is doing great things in the world today. You can find out more about contributing here.
