Doug Pagitt serves as the pastor of Solomon’s Porch in Minneapolis, MN. He stands as a leader in the Emergent Church, and holds too many of the same beliefs and ideologies as Brian McLaren. In his book, Preaching Re-Imagined, he sets forth an approach to preaching called progressional dialogue. Pagitt, like McLaren and others in the Emergent Church, wants to have a “conversation,” instead of proclaiming the truths found in Scripture. This review presents the preaching methodology of Doug Pagitt, and analyzes its strengths and weaknesses. Continue reading “A REVIEW OF DOUG PAGITT’S PREACHING METHODOLOGY”
