About meI'm a fiftysomething year old Aussie, living with my wife and son in Perth, Western Australia. I've been a bit of a bookworm ever since I was a kid - if I see something with print on it my natural curiosity, which has not abated, is drawn to it. I'm also a bit of a dreamer and have been drawn to seek expression and realisation of some of those dreams through Christian ministry. Happily this is a journey that is expanding rather than contracting.

About my libraryWhere does one begin? Cataloguing with LibraryThing has at least given me a prompt to begin something I've been putting off for a long time. At time of writing, I've just completed the first 200 and the ease of this energises me to keep going. The "tagcloud" will give some idea of my predispositions, but I like to think of my library as being fairly eclectic, albeit weighted in the areas of theology and spirituality.

I said in the thread to which you responded that I and lots of Aussies are interested in the emergiong church stuff.

There are however heaps of problems with what some people have tried. I am coming to a sort of middle ground where I recognise that we need to be out there talking to people in many different circles (obviously depending on our interests, work and contacts) while we need strong churches as a sort of hub to bring people into community once they become christians. I know this is not purist emerging church - but I can't see an alternative that will work.

Since you are obviously a reader, have a look at the first book in the series I am writing. It is supposed to be just plain good fantasy with themes from [Wild at Heart] and Crabb's [Silence of Adam].

The strange thing is that I have gathered an audience of young men. David Murrow and Joe witwer when they were out here in Australia, thought that important and have taken on board the concept of a book that gets men and especially young men talking.

Please let me know if you check it out and what you think?
