Paul Duncan

We are finally back after a LONG hiatus for no reason other than what can be blamed on Spanish bureaucracy. Paul Duncan lives in Birmingham, UK, and works with Agape Europe helping to train leaders at all levels. Aside from being fun to speak with, Paul has great insights into what makes a leader, what is needed for future leaders in Europe, and how leadership has changed over the years.

Character or Skill?

Should we be focusing on building skills in leaders or character? We discuss a problem that vexes us to a certain extent, while so much secular literature focuses on building character in leaders, much Christian literature is still focused on skills building.

Shifts in Missions with Josh Irby

How have missions changed as the world is becoming more interconnected? How has it changed now that "traditional" mission fields are sending to the world? How have missions changed as Christians from cultures less powerful and culturally dominant that the "west" are sending people all over?

Preconditions for Outreach

We often talk about how we cannot really reverse engineer movements that have been seen around the world. So why bother with a list of preconditions for outreach? Well, these particular preconditions can help us to gauge how we ourselves are doing in our Christian life and to prepare our labors and the ground for the gospel.

Evangelism as Play

Today we think out loud. So, this is like every other podcast that we have done...What is the connection between evangelism and play? Do we stop playing as adults? Or does our play become more sophisticated? If it does, is it possible that evangelism and play are connected?

Movements and HR Departments

What is a movement? We use that word rather loosely in this day and age and we call a lot of things movement which maybe aren't actually movements. Are organizations movements? Were they once movements and now aren't? How does it actually work? Well, don't get us wrong, HR departments and the like of various organizations are essential to the organization, but it is important that we understand if what makes a movement is actually the idea or the structure. We foray into this a bit...
