Reviews

Todd Hunter's journey--unlike that of the 1980s 'evangelicals on the Canterbury Trail'--is a missional merging of Anglican resources and church-planting passion. Free of romanticized illusions, he offers a clear-eyed appreciation of the Anglican potential for mission after modernity. --David Neff, editor in chief and vice president, Christianity Today Media Group

Todd's story is a fascinating, moving, honest and often very funny account of what God can do with one of his servants committed to growing his kingdom today . . . very inspiring. --Right Reverend Prebendary J. A. K. Millar, vicar, Tollington Park, and assistant bishop, London
