About this episode
Summary:
What does church planting look like in one of the least-reached English-speaking countries in the world? In this episode of The Mission Matters Podcast, Ted Esler talks with Irish church planter, researcher, and writer Jonny Pollock about the changing spiritual landscape of Ireland, rapid secularization, immigration and the growth of diaspora churches, and the challenges of cross-cultural missions in a post-Catholic context. Jonny also shares the story behind Glúnta, a mapping project identifying evangelical churches and communities with little or no local church presence, and explains how better research can encourage strategic church planting, collaboration, prayer, and sustainable ministry for generations to come.
The Mission Matters Podcast is a place to talk about the importance of our Mission as Christians. The Mission Matters is a partnership of Missio Nexus and Sixteen:Fifteen, who have a shared passion to mobilize God’s people to be a part of His mission.
