One of the realities of life in twenty-first century North America is that God has brought the nations to our doorstep.  Great Commission churches will focus on how to reach those internationals living in their midst.  In this podcast, I interview Trent DeLoach, who works with internationals in the Louisville, KY area.  Trent’s passion is helping local congregations to reach out to immigrants and refugees in their communities.  As you listen to my interview with Trent, begin to consider how you might lead your congregation to take the gospel to those who are far from us culturally but near to us geographically.

I want to introduce you to a new feature on this website – the “Cry of the Nations” podcast.  In these recordings, I will interview a significant leader who is addressing Great Commission issues in his ministry.  My hope is that these discussions will help all of us as we seek to impact a lost world with the gospel.

The first podcast is with David Platt.  David is the pastor of The Church at Brook Hills in Birmingham, AL and is truly a pastor with a Great Commission heart.  David’s passion in ministry is for disciple-making, and he has led his church to glorify God by making disciples of all nations.  In this podcast, we’ll talk about David’s ministry and why it’s important for the pastor to lead his church to embrace a Great Commission vision.
