New Monasticism in the News
New monasticism has been written about recently in:
The Los Angeles Times (120+ comments)
(HT: Zach Roberts, Andrew Jones)
UPDATE: Speaking of new monasticism …
Christine Sine is talking about how Mustard Seed Associates is “in the process of reimagining MSA as a network of communities with a common rule of life.”
They plan to meet after the New Conspirators conference to flesh things out (pardon the pun).
Allelon had a meeting back in October 2007 to discuss the idea of reforming itself as a “missional order.”
Emergent Village actually has a set of “Values and Practices,” which are referred to as our “order and rule.” (Many people do not know this. I had to be reminded of it myself recently!) Do you know what the four values of Emergent and our common practices are? Find out.

Dear Friends,
Can we have a conversation? When we look at the monastic movements of the Christian Church what is it that speaks most powerfully to us in the 21st century? What is it within monasticism that is essential to the life of the Emergent Church?
Peace,

Greetings Friends in the Emergent Village! Today I had the privilege of hearing Phyllis Tickle and Tony Jones speak about the Emergent Church. I am glad to see this new movement of God’s Spirit opening a way forward. Truly, a generous and wise Spirit is emerging.
In Peace,
Stefan Andre Waligur
