Tom Sine @ Vose Seminary
I’m looking forward to Tom Sine appearing in my library on Thursday 24 April – http://vose.wa.edu.au/view/news/20080414142148/. Tom has strong Anabaptist connections, and his latest book, The New Conspirators, looks at the way God is working through emerging, missional, monastic, and mosaic streams of church as heralds of his kingdom.
