just finished reading The New Conspirators by Tom Sine (author of The Mustard Seed Conspiracy) this morning.  The book discusses 4 trends within the church today; the missional, mosaic, monastic, and emerging.  Sine does a great job of summarizing each of the 4 movements and giving examples of how God is moving in each one.He also lays out some of the challenges and opportunities that will be facing the church over the coming decade.  And one of the things I really like that he does is that often time the challenges and opportunities are two sides of the same coin.  So for example he talks about the rising cost of housing being a challenge that Christians need to prepare themselves for, but that it also provides us the opportunity to explore what it might look like to live in community together.

I was really impressed with The New Conspirators and thinks Tom Sine does an excellent job of giving an overview of those 4 movements as well as providing an inspiring view of what the church and Christians could be like.
