Rev. Dr. Edward Naumann: Proclaiming the Faith in Every Nation and Language
Description
In this week's episode of Christendom in the World, Rev. Dr. Edward Naumann joins us to discuss his work with the South Asia Lutheran Mission—a grassroots effort to equip pastors and congregations with faithful, doctrinally sound resources across Nepal, India, and beyond.
Dr. Naumann shares how the mission prioritizes open-access publishing, local printing, and long-term relationships built on trust. He tells powerful stories of entire villages in Nepal converting to Christianity, often at great personal cost, and explains the mission's focus on education—from teaching the Small Catechism to translating liturgies and hymnals.
We also talk about the dangers of dependency, the challenges of discernment in international mission work, and the surprising ways Western churches can learn from newly converted believers in places where the Gospel is taking root with boldness and urgency.
