Emergence
Emergence by Brett A. Burner, published by Zondervan in 2008, is a 160-page work presented in English. This book follows Michael, who, newly married, discovers the joy of serving both at home and in society while navigating the complexities of newfound abilities, including flight. The narrative addresses the media’s portrayal of the Tempest, a group whose members seem to exploit crises for publicity, contrasting their public humility with the self-absorbed culture of today.

Emergence invites reflection on the balance between personal achievement and spiritual purpose within a contemporary context.
Official synopsis Publisher
Newly married and now able to fly, Michael finds joy in serving both at home and in society. But the media’s coverage of the Tempest irritates the Hand of the Morningstar, whose members appear to use each crisis as a publicity stunt. In today’s cultural context that encourages self-infatuation, the Tempest’s public humility shows young adults how one’s abilities and accomplishments—even flying through the air and smashing advanced weaponry—can give glory to God rather than go to one’s head.
