Thanks Ted. This is important. It is also an autoimmune disorder when the body attacks itself. And "negative identity" groups (you are what you're against) have a lot of energy at the beginning but don't tend to last long. We have to be active in working for unity (Eph. 4:1-6) and make space for multiple approaches, i.e. legacy ecclesiology should support movemental ecclesiology and vice versa. Thanks for this post.

Good word, Ted… If it’s one thing we need, it’s more church planting (no matter the method).
