The New Conspirators: Creating the Future One Mustard Seed at a Time

"If you have faith as small as a mustard seed," Jesus says in the Gospel of
Matthew, "nothing will be impossible for you."
That sounds good, but does it work in a world where seeds are genetically
altered by an impatient few and hard to come by for countless others? In a
world where the gulf between the very rich and the profoundly poor is
constantly growing, can a mustard-seed faith make any difference? And can
such a little bit of faith be sustained in a world whose future is so uncertain
on so many fronts?
Tom Sine says yes, and he has the audacity to try to prove it in his latest
book. In The New Conspirators Tom surveys the landscape of
creative Christianity, where streams of renewal are flowing freely from
diverse sources:

• The emerging church
• Contemporary monastic movements
• The missional church
• The mosaic movement

Individuals and communities of faith are coalescing in, and drawing energy
from, these four streams to retrofit the church as it leads, serves and gives
witness to the kingdom of God in the turbulent times facing us. Read the
book and you'll want to-and be prepared to-join God's conspiracy to
create a better future.
