I told you there is a Copernicus Revolution going on!

Jim Henderson, founder of Off the Map, speaks to the paradigm shift going on in our culture (and hopefully, churches) which I was trying to speak to in my thoughts/rave/post on Copernicus - Does It Really Matter? From his article...

Peter Drucker said, “Every few hundred years in Western society there occurs a sharp transformation. Within a few short decades, society rearranges itself… We are currently living through such a transformation.” Apparently, Drucker believed that we’re currently living through a cultural transformation unlike anything that has happened since the 18th Century. That would include the American Revolution, the Civil War, World Wars I and II, the atomic bomb and even the Beatles! What if there’s a Copernican Revolution going on and we don’t “see” it, what if we’re on the wrong side again?

His complete article can be found here - where he asks "Where could you take Jesus to church and not feel like you had to explain it to him?"

Wow. That last question should be a blog all on it's own. Good food for thought, my friend.
