Where is the life God promised us?
Life is busy. We live like slaves to our fast-paced, suffocating
schedules. We spend our energy and time in triviality, relegating
God to the background. He seems distant to us, and we resist the
idea that God wants to give, say, and show us more; we dismiss it
as rumor. But Jesus calls us to a better way. Another dream- an
unimagined future. Close the gap between what you hear about and
what you see.
Rumors is filled with the same forward-thinking spirit that
defines its authors, Jon Tyson and Darren Whitehead. ―Louie Giglio,
pastor, Passion City Church
Both challenging and encouraging, Rumors of God will reintroduce
you to a God worth talking about. ―Gabe Lyons, author, "The Next
Christians," founder, Q, coauthor, "UnChristian"
This book invites us to find the rumors of God all around us.
Read it, but be ready to be changed. ―Scot McKnight, author,
"One.Life: Jesus Calls, We Follow" and "Jesus Creed for
Students"
For those who are jaded by the church, or have become cynical
about the power of the Gospel in our time, Rumors of God is a great
antidote. ―Alan Hirsch, author, dreamer, activist

Foreword by Bill Hybels, founding and senior pastor of Willow
Creek Community Church in South Barrington, Ill., and chairman of
the board for the Willow Creek Association.
" ""The irony: two upstart Aussies from tiny towns half a world
away wind up leading high impact churches in two of the most
significant cities in North America. Only God."
"Darren Whitehead and Jon Tyson are deep thinking Christ
followers with a bias for action in the world. A rare combination
these days. They are both leaders and communicators, visionaries
and "get stuff done for God" guys. Extremely rare."
"I have had the privilege of working closely with Darren at
Willow Creek Community Church for over 7 years. He is thoughtful,
relationally intelligent and one of the hardest working young
leaders I know."
"In Rumors of God, Darren and Jon have some how succeeded in
slipping 3D glasses over our eyes. The results are that passages
from scripture come alive in ways that will impact readers for a
long time."
" ""I salute the efforts of these young mates and pray that
readers will be as stretched in their minds and hearts as I have
been."
