How do you describe being an emergent baptist?

I grew up Southern Baptist but then 'strayed' from that fold. Then at some point I discovered the Anabaptists, and fell in love. These days I'm in a post-denominational church expression, but one that owes a lot both to Baptists and Anabaptists. I suppose its out of the compost of all that's gone before that I'm emerging, and sense that others are too. I sense the Spirit in this emergence.
