God's Biker: Motorcycles and Misfits

God's Biker: Motorcycles and Misfits

'An extraordinary, authentic example of discipleship, and the honouring and validation of the radiant "broken jewels" on society's margins. ' Stewart Henderson, poet, broadcaster and lyricist Zac's Place is a church in Swansea. It is a small chaotic community of Jesus followers where some of the most fragile of life's walking wounded try to work out their faith. It's also the spiritual home for the local chapter of God's Squad motorcycle club. Zac's Place, founded in 1998, is led by Sean Stillman, whose front-line ministry has cost him dearly and has included physical beatings. In Zac's Place, chaos and disorder sit alongside community and grace in an environment resembling an AA meeting mixed with a casualty department. This is Sean's personal story of a transformed faith amid the broken, the church community that formed from it and the European-wide growth of an unlikely bunch of biker missionaries. God's Biker asks the questions, 'What if it's not about perfection? What if it's about beauty in broken places?' Sean Stillman has served among those outside mainstream church culture for thirty years. A friend of the outcast, an advocate for the arts and an irritant to the comfortable, he has learned to see life with the lid off. Much of Sean’s work has been among the biker subculture and motorcycle clubs – a role hard earned over many years any many miles on the road. He has served as the founding UK President, European President and International Vice-President of God’s Squad Christian Motorcycle Club, and his ministry has been widely covered in the press.
