Where is the life God promised us? Life is busy. We live like slaves to our fast-paced, suffocating schedules. We spend our energy and time in triviality, relegating God to the background. He seems distant to us, and we resist the idea that God wants to give, say, and show us more; we dismiss it as rumor. But Jesus calls us to a better way. Another dream—an unimagined future. Close the gap between what you hear about and what you see.

“Rumors is filled with the same forward-thinking spirit the defines its authors, Jon Tyson and Darren Whitehead. One thing is for certain, these guys love the church, and the Christ who fashions it together through lives reborn by the unique and ageless grace he exudes. Their Gospel is classically timeless, but everything about the way they write, think, and lead feels fresh and future. If you’ll let them, they’ll gladly lead you there.”
— Louie Giglio, pastor, Passion City Church
“Many church leaders can exegete the Bible, sadly few can exegete our culture. Tyson and Whitehead reveal their teaching gifts as they deftly accomplish while illuminating a vision for what our life with God can be. Rumors of God will be a convincing and encouraging read for Christians searching for more.”
— Skye Jethani, author of With: Reimagining the Way You Relate to God“In a world that perpetually castigates the Christian Church for its many failures, Jon Tyson and Darren Whitehead give us hope. With wisdom beyond their years, these next generation leaders shift our collective gazes from the church’s blemishes to her beauty, from her prominent failures to her promising future. Both challenging and encouraging, Rumors of God will reintroduce you to a God worth talking about.”
— Gabe Lyons, author of The Next Christians“If you look around you, if you listen to more than the sound, and if you probe below the surface, there are rumors of God everywhere. Once you begin to hear the rumors, all of life changes and we begin to fix on the kingdom dreams of Jesus. This book invites us to find the rumors of God all around us. Read it, but be ready to be changed because you will also begin to hear the rumors.”
— Scot McKnight, author of One.Life: Jesus Calls“Each time I have had the opportunity to hear Darren teach, I ahve gone away moved and inspired. Now, in Rumors of God, he and Jon do that again. They remind us that God is still here, and still very much able to be found.”
