Peter Dunn: Multiplying Disciples Across Boundaries

The More Disciples Podcast

Making Disciples Around the World: A Deep Dive with Peter Dunn

In this episode of the More Disciples Podcast, special guest Peter Dunn discusses his journey transitioning from the Baptist Mission Society to working on a disciple-making mission in Europe. His goal is to encourage every believer to be a disciple-maker, transcending the often spectator-oriented church model. He also shares his experiences on challenges like the political incorrectness of persuading someone to believe differently and the pull to stay with the existing traditions. He points out how younger generations are hungry for spiritual experiences and a sense of community – elements that often become the key to engaging them with the church.
