Outsiders have suggested the following:
Listen to me.
Don't label me.
Don't be so smart and pretend to have all the answers.
Put yourself in my place.
Be genuine.
Be my friend with no other motives.
What they want and what they need are not the same thing. However, we can't win them to Christ without being there for them. I know I cannot win anyone to Christ unless they are drawn by the Holy Spirit but I may be an instrument in the hands of the Holy Spirit.
The emergent church has their answers but it does not call for the invention of the church as they would suggest but rather allowing Christ to be head over the church and the church to be the bride of Christ.
