Emerging Church: Does The Hat Still Fit?

I ask this every year. This year, MOST people in my world say that the label "emerging church" or "emergent church" does not define or describe the kinds of ministries they are doing. That also means that many books on the subject do not speak for these people and most of the criticism misses its target. Not only that, but using the term is problematic for some Seminaries and ministries. What do you think? Is the term helpful to you or a hindrance?
