"Neo-Anabaptists" and wineskins for God's new world

By Jarrod McKenna

‘Anglican-Anabaptists’, ‘Charismatic-Anabaptists’, ‘Emerging church-Anabaptists’, ‘Baptist-Anabaptists’, and even 'Mennonite-Anabaptists'! :)

I’ve just returned from the bi-national executive board meeting of the “Anabaptist Association of Australia and New Zealand”, or AAANZ (sounds impressive hey!).

Celts and Anabaptists: Wisdom from the Margins for Tomorrow’s Church?

There are many differences between these traditions. The Celtic tradition is very old; it emerged in the sixth century in the Christianization of Wales, Ireland, Scotland and Northumbria; it is a tradition associated with the evangelization of the C… Continue

Good post re: Benedictine Community and Anabaptist Ecclesiology

Anabaptism is unique among all ecclesial frames for reference derived from the Reformation in many ways, one of which involves its Catholic roots and specifically Benedictine roots. Unlike Luther the Augustinian, Calvin the lawyer, or Zwingli the Christian humanist, the Anabaptist tradition arose largely in the soil of the Benedictine tradition. This is seen most clearly in the influence of Michael Sattler over the Radical Reformation. The earliest Anabaptist confession, The Schletheim Confessio… Continue

Good to hear from you! Fuller is going well. I just started full-time studies again, which I am immersed in reading and writing, and reading and writing, and reading and writing. Hope all is well!

Grace and Peace,

Dave

Busy...Jessie just started working for Bread for the World, which has been a huge step for her, and I've started working for WarnerPacific College in a staff capacity. Writing has been on hold for the moment, though I've been planning for a novel...story has become increasingly fascinating to me. Portland/Vancouver is interesting.
Hey...I've been considering something...coming under the banner of the Mennonite denomination...for a variety of reasons that I'd love to talk about. Was wondering what your thoughts are about those doors and possibilities. I know that you've been exploring that in some arenas for a while now. Maybe we can talk about that.

I started attending a brethren in Christ here in Canada and really started to vibe with the anti baptist thing and the peace teachings of Jesus. I was never taught that before...

Looking forward to the journey...
