Martin Luther´s 95 Theses & all Generations of Church...
Picture: spurgeon.org?I think that I am an evangelical catholic?, is a special statement by Nigel McCullough, former Bishop of Wakefield, today Bishop of Manchester.
Martin Luther as a Lutheran struggled with the Catholic Church, but f. Martin was like Bishop Nigel nothing else than "an evangelical catholic". We know the Martin Luther?s 95 Theses.
Brian Mann is also struggling, not like f. Martin, but with the Question concerning the Teens ?Why don´t Teens come?? And ? he is not alone with this struggling, he?s sharing this with almost all churches in the West. Brian Mann is concerned for the teens and their absence in the church. So why are there so few teenagers at your church on Sundays? See Brian?s reflections.
Brian has rediscovered the 95 theses in a text from 1997 with the head line 95 Postmodern Theses, from John O´Keefe. - To this article came a lot of Comments; see A Response to the 95 Postmodern Theses by Luke Sneeringer. About the "95 Postmodern Theses? said Len Hjalmarson: ?Check them out. I'm not sure if I agree with them all, and there is a lot of overlap, but they are thought provoking.?

The Swedish - and Global - Christianity needs resources like Martin Luther, John O´Keefe, Nigel McCullough, and Brian Mann to Incarnate the Gospel for Generations together.
And the more Evangelical Catholics we are, the more could the Church´s togetherness include all Generations in Community together.
Personally is the undersigned editor an Orthodox, Pro-catholic, Sweden-Churchly, Pentecostal, Lutheran, Small-Charismatical, Evangelical in all Confessing Christian, who believes that we could find answers from three (3) directions: from Above, from History and from the Common present Christianity in the Togetherness... and not only from the Postmodernism, but we have to listen to the Questions that come from Emerging Conversation. And EC knows the 3 directions, I know.
