In this very thorough and informative piece my dear friend Cecil Andrews of Take Heed Ministries begins:

When Pastor Gary Gilley was here as the guest of ‘Take Heed’ Ministries [March/April 2006] I asked him to speak on 2 specific issues. One was the ‘seeker-sensitive’ or ‘user-friendly’ approach to preaching the Gospel as promoted in Rick Warren’s ‘Purpose Driven Movement’. The other was what has come to be known as ‘The Emerging Church’. This is a very loose ‘coalition’ of post-modern pastors and conference speakers… and during the ‘emerging’ section of his talk Gary Gilley also mentioned Kristen and Rob Bell.
