I think my wife is an Emergent…or emerging…or whatever

I bought my wife tulips
She doesn’t care a thing for them
Instead she wants trees planted
To reduce her footprint that’s carbon.
She doesn’t read that Mac Arthur book I bought her
She’d rather read Brian MacClaren
If she wasn’t married to a reformed Pastor
I think she’s be Episcopalian

I think my wife’s an emergent
She only owns the NIRV
I’m always catching her reading Colossians 1:20
And Marcus Borg’s theology
She has a blog ad that says “Friend of Emergent Village”
She likes Rob Bell more than she likes me
And that’s okay
I chose her…and she didn’t choose me.

She put me in the doghouse
For preaching on heaven and on hell
She won’t fix meat for supper now
Because she sees animals as brothers and sisters- wow!
And if you have ever met her,
You know she is not mean, she is really sweet
Except when it comes to the matter of
Her complete lack of doctrine and orthodoxy….
Chorus

I want to live with her in peace
So we don’t discuss salvation anymore
I believe in salvation by grace through faith
She believes we are all reconciled and restored
She believes all religions lead to God
And salvation was purchased for everybody
She only believes the red letters in her Bible
Except for those texts that support her philosophy!

Repeat…
I think my wife’s an emergent
She only owns the NIRV- She made me burn my ESV Study Bible
I’m always catching her reading Colossians 1:20- all the time!
And Marcus Borg’s theology
She has blog ad that says “Friend of Emergent Village”
She likes Rob Bell more than she likes me
And that’s okay
I chose her…and she didn’t choose me.
