God is doing something new through a new generation of innovators, risk takers and entrepreneurs. These new conspirators can be found in at least four streams:

emerging

missional

mosaic {multi-cultural}

monastic

Some are creating innovative missional expressions of church, some are creating sustainable communities that work with the poor. Others are using the arts to create imaginative forms of environmental advocacy. Still others are creating new ways to celebrate the in-breaking of God’s new order. These young conspirators are all imagining new ways, in these uncertain times, to give creative expression to that new world the Jesus told us is already here.These new conspirators are not only creating new models but they are also raising important questions about what it means to be a disciple of Jesus, be the church and do mission that need to be discussed by the entire church.If you have faith as small as a mustard seed,” Jesus says in the Gospel of Matthew, “nothing will be impossible for you.” Tom Sine invites readers to join a new generation of conspirators and discover how God can more fully use our mustard seeds to be a difference and make a difference that reflects something of God’s kingdomWhy don’t you discover why there is such a buzz about The New Conspirators: Creating the Future One Mustard Seed at a Time…and join the conspiracy???

Shane Claiborne quotes British songwriter Martyn Joseph as he writes about the quiet revolution of Jesus:

“What a strange way to start a revolution. . . And what a strange way to end a world tour.” We worship the seed that died. The revolution will not be televised. It will not be brought to you by Fox News with commercial interruptions. It will not be sandwiched between ads to accelerate you life or be all you can be. There will be no re-runs. The revolution will be live. The revolution will be in the streets. The revolution will be cleaning toilets and giving another blanket to Karen. The revolution will not be talking about poverty in hotel banquet rooms. It will be eating beans and rice with Ms. Sunshine and watching Back to the Future with our neighbor Mary. Get ready, friends… God is preparing us for something really, really - small.
