After a post asking about the whereabouts of this controversial blogger, The Thinking Theologian dropped by and left a note saying the blog was back.
Rumours of my silence-by-lawsuit have been greatly exaggerated…
In early May I was contacted by a Hillsong pastor, with whom I discussed this blog and my motives behind running it.
Whilst it was admitted that Hillsong are unable to close down the blog, I nevertheless voluntarily took down the content; to show willing in maintaining a healthy, constructive dialogue with the Hillsong leadership.
I have since had several conversations with the leadership, in which I voiced my various concerns regarding Hillsong. I remain convinced, however, of the very evident need for frank and open critique of Hillsong’s culture, systems, and world-view.
I have therefore re-posted The Thinking Theologian, and advised the Hillsong leadership of my intention to continue the blog.
Great to have you back mate — and I look forward to your observations about churches of all types!

Thanks for the re-post. Just do what makes you happy my friend. The seminary is proud to have someone like you.
