Are large crowds and impressive church facilities overshadowing genuine discipleship in modern ministry? This episode of the World Evangelism Podcast, hosted by Austin Gardner, challenges the conventional metrics of ministry success. We scrutinize common pitfalls like prioritizing conversions and attracting large crowds, advocating instead for a focus on mentorship and training faithful leaders as exemplified by Jesus and the Apostle Paul. By revisiting the core mission of building disciples, we aim to inspire a more meaningful and sustainable approach to ministry.
Leadership training within American churches is another pressing issue we address, noting how pastors often find themselves overwhelmed with tasks that detract from their primary mission. Drawing from biblical examples, we underscore the importance of delegation and mentorship to foster a culture of growth and reproduction rather than dependency. We also express heartfelt gratitude to our listeners, encouraging them to share the podcast and join us in the mission of global evangelism. Stay tuned for announcements on my latest book releases and learn how you can stay updated on my writings and teachings.
