Zac's Place is a church in Swansea. It is a small chaotic community of Jesus followers where the most fragile of life's walking wounded try to work out their faith, because they quite simply wouldn't fit anywhere else. It's also the spiritual home foor the local chapter of the motorcycle club God's Squad. Zac's Place was founded in 1998 and for nearly twenty years has been led by Sean Stillman – a "painfully shy, nervous preacher's kid" – whose front-line ministry, at Zac's Place and on the road, has cost him dearly, including physical beating. In Zac's Place, chaos and disorder sit alongside community and grace in an environment that sometimes resembles an AA meeting mixed with a casualty department.

This is Sean's personal story of a transformed faith alongside the broken, the story of the church he started and the European-wide growth of an unlikely bunch of biker missionaries. The thread that will run through it is the 'greater righteousness' that Christ was looking for - what can happen when our concern for the perfect performance is stripped bare and replaced with poverty of spirit.

Having known Sean since teenage years, I know the authenticity with which he writes. The book will move you emotionally, it will challenge you to respond to God's missional call in your own life, it will provoke you to think through what Christ's vision of "church" really is, and it will also tell you Sean's story of walking (or should I say riding) with Christ. It's quite short but full of deep thinking that has been marinated over time as Sean has constantly reflected on what he has seen and heard Jesus doing in him, through him and around him. - often to his own surprise. I can't think of any Christian I know who would not get something from this book - including hearing of God at work in lives many of us will never encounter which encourages the expectation that he will work work in the lives of those we do if we also choose to live the authentic gospel with Christ-like vulnerability.
