Emergent New Comers: An Open Question

As the interest in Emergent/Emerging Church grows, many people are coming into the journey with little to no experience or understanding of the increasingly complex nature of the movement. It occurred to me that there exists plenty of resources recommended to those who are interested in exploring the Emerging Movement, but this can often be like throwing someone into the deep end (while holding a stack of books). Too little time is spent on cautioning new comers what to expect from the journey- good, bad and ugly.

So here is my question to all of you:

What advice would you offer newcomers, beyond books to read & blogs to visit, that would best prepare them for the realities of the emergent journey?

Please add your input into the comment section. I look forward to what we can all learn together.
