Brian McLarenBrian McLaren, one of the leaders of the emerging church movement, has now confirmed that he has been “invited to participate in the Lambeth Conference” to speak on “evangelism/disciple-making”.

Matt Kennedy, who broke the news at Stand Firm, comments,

We ought not be naive with regard to Brian McLaren’s invitation to Lambeth… He will be there to tell the assembled bishops just how hazy, foggy, undefined, and ultimately, unresolvable the question of homosexual behaviour really is and why nothing ought to be done until at least 2016.

For some responses to McLaren’s theology, see Mark Dever’s review of Brian McLaren’s A New Kind of Christian – at IX Marks – and Al Mohler’s 2005 article What Should We Think of the Emerging Church? part 2.  (Photo: brianmclaren.net.)
