Publisher's Description
In Radical Disciple readers will be introduced to John Vincent’s work by way of those who knew him best: students, friends, and colleagues. Each tells a story or offers a kind of testament, "warts and all," as John would put it. In John Vincent's thinking, this is a "serious kind of book"—it relays the facts without missing "the many-splendored thing.” So, along with the facts, readers will find the dramatic, amusing, serious, and anecdotal. Most importantly, they will find a living testament to John Vincent's vision of radical urban theology and discipleship.

Vincent’s approach to radical discipleship and community engagement in east Sheffield and the Urban Theology Union, held together by Duffield’s steady rhythm, will give you plenty of soul food for your journey.”
