Pictured: Nadia Bolz-Weber, Jay Bakker, Tony Jones, and Chris Rosebrough.
What, Dan Kimball isn't in the photo? The Pirate Christian flag in the background is cool but seriously, only one of the three is a Christian pirate. The other three are claimed to be heretics? I understand the photo was taken during an emergent church conference. Now I know who the Nadia is that critics of Pirate Christian reference in their tweets to Chris.
Tony Jones tweeted this photo from Big Tent Christianity with the tag:
Disagree? Sure, but still together in Christ.
Apparently Ken Silva took some offense to Tony’s interpretation of this moment, which I find terribly interesting when you consider that Tony was there and Ken was not there. In his post, Correcting Tony Jones, Ken interprets the this picture as one man (Chris Rosebrough – far right),
a Christian, reaching out to three people who desperately need to hear the Gospel of repentance and the forgiveness of their sins in Jesus’ Name.
My interpretation? I see four people posing, with smiles, for a picture.
