Ep. 72 | God at Work in Europe: Evangelism & Leadership
Description
What does street evangelism look like in post-Christian Europe—and how can one person’s vision spark a movement across nations? 🌍
In this inspiring episode of the History Makers Leadership Podcast, Norival Trindade talks with Martin Durham, Director of K180 and ILI’s International Director for Europe. Martin shares his journey from banking professional to street evangelist, beginning with a terrifying moment preaching in London’s busy Leicester Square. That experience lit a fire that grew into a ministry dedicated to evangelism and leadership development across Europe.
Hear how God expanded Martin’s vision from “England on fire with the gospel” to “Europe ablaze with the gospel”—and how that vision has guided K180 for decades. Far from “hellfire and brimstone,” their creative approach uses music, testimonies, and short engaging messages to start real conversations.
They dive into:
- The power of evangelism in today’s culture
- How God is moving across Europe, especially among Gen Z
- Why discipleship—not just conversion—is the critical issue for the church
- Stories of unexpected encounters that turned hecklers into seekers
With just 2% of Europe identifying as Bible-believing Christians, the challenges are great—but so are the opportunities. As Martin reminds us: “The power is in the gospel. He’s the one who changes lives.”
