Just Imagine...

The Emerging Legislature

It's official. Emergent guru Doug Pagitt is running for office:

After two years of thinking, planning and dreaming I have made a decision to add a new component to my work and service life: I am going to join the political field and run for public office.

So, today I announce that I am running for the Minnesota State Legislature in 2010.

While the 2008 election just ended minutes ago, I am setting my sights on November 2, 2010, only 729 days away.

This new endeavor shouldn't take any time away from his ministry. Pastors who aren't busy preaching the gospel tend to have a lot of extra time on their hands.
