the monkey and the fish

I just started reading a new book, The Monkey and the Fish: Liquid Leadership for a Third-Culture Church, by Dave Gibbons, the founding pastor of Newsong.  I first heard about this book earlier in the year when a visiting pastor preached at our church and recommended it as one of the two most significant voices coming out of our denomination right now.  His recommendation piqued my interest, so I tucked the two titles away in my memory for future reference.  A month or so later, I got a second recommendation for The Monkey and the Fish on this friend's blog and that sealed the deal for me. 

I'm finally getting around to starting it...and I'm loving it so far.  Does anyone want to read this book with me?  I think it could spark some terrific discussion.  Even if you aren't interested in the book, I highly recommend checking out this video.  It gives a great overview of the concept "third-culture" and is definitely worth the time if you have 10 minutes to watch it.  Some of you may even recognize a few faces in the video (Cue, Adam Edgerly).
