He likes it. He gets it.
ps. I can’t figure out how to comment there so I’ll do it here. He complains a bit that I didn’t focus much on the emergent movement/Mars Hill Church (I know there’s a distinction). I did address it at some length in the chapter: “The Joy of Being Confessional” and again, as he notes, in the epilogue. As the commercial used to say, “It’s in there.” See also this talk on “Why the Mission Needs the Marks.” Check out this audio. See the chapter in this book.

Dr. Clark,
As I said in an earlier post, I am an Acts 29 guy. I love Mark and think he is a great guy. I also am really enjoying your book and being challenged by it. When I have finished working through it, I will write on my blog about it as well. So, I am just another witness that you are influencing young pastors outside your typical “camp.”—hate to use that word, but you know what I mean I hope.
Thanks,
Chad Vegas
