Are we on the verge of the Great Emergence? is a short article that discusses Phyllis Tickle's talk at the Atlanta NYWC:

"This kind of revolution, said Tickle, doesn't mean 'any one of those forms of earlier Christianity ever ceases to be. It simply means that every time we have one of these great upheavals ... whatever was the dominant form of Christianity loses its pride of place and gives way to something new. What's giving way, right now, is Protestantism as you and I have always known it.'"
