It’s clearer to me than ever that the selfishness of a few are ruining the lives of the many, and what baffles me the most is that you and I do nothing about it. We don’t challenge it or sanction it, and I think it’s because we secretly hope one day we will find ourselves [...]
My White Lie
by Sean Tucker on 17. Nov, 2012 in Blog Posts
I’m now back in the UK. The reason I haven’t written for a while is because I was trying to sort my life out. After losing my job in South Africa in May, and struggling to even get an interview for anything new, I decided to make a run for the land of my birth [...]
An Interview (part 2)
by Sean Tucker on 13. Mar, 2012 in Blog Posts
I had Cheryl Ramurath contact me from Joburg recently, and after reading the book she asked to interview me with the view to seeing it published somewhere in the near future. In the meantime I thought I would post it here for those of you who are interested. It’s a bit long so I’m posting [...]
Chat 3: Rob on “Reading Better”
by Sean Tucker on 26. May, 2011 in The Podcast
As you’ll hear; Rob is my clever friend. He’s a lecturer at the Cornerstone Institute (www.cornerstone.ac.za) in Cape Town, and he does a huge amount of reading on Theology. He is the guy I go to when I’m completely stumped on something. I actually usually drive away from our coffees together feeling even more confused; [...]
Chat 2: Brett on “Loving Church”
by Sean Tucker on 09. May, 2011 in The Podcast
Brett and I moved in the same church circles for years, and we see eye to eye on many issues. Apart from being the guy who named my cats, we have had some great conversations which I hope have stretched us both in our thinking and faith. He is a friend who isn’t afraid to [...]

Talk 2: Big Picture
by Sean Tucker on 23. Jun, 2010 in The Podcast
Week three speaking at this church and I used the story of Jonah to speak to the guys about our tendency to make church about ourselves and reminding them of God’s big mission to rescue everything. Leave me your thoughts. Enjoy.
Hats Off!
by Sean Tucker on 20. May, 2010 in Blog Posts
In a couple of weeks I am flying up to Natal to do a ‘preaching residency’ for the whole of June. It basically means I will speak at 2 services every Sunday for the four weeks I’m there, as well as hanging out at the cell groups and some youth meetings; I suppose the same [...]
Praise for the Book:
"If you prefer to watch the battles of the institutional church from the sidelines, then this book is not for you. It's a firm shove off the fence of passive spirituality."
"Witty, cynical, personal, and deeply hopeful. A breath of fresh air to church-goers, and non-church-goers alike."
"A clarion call for the reclamation of the authentic Gospel of Jesus Christ for our society, for our times, and for our churches."
"Irreverent about the things the institutional church reveres, and reverent about the things the Kingdom is all about."
