Peter Dunn: Multiplying Disciples Across Boundaries

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.   00:01 Introduction to the More Disciples Podcast 00:24 Guest Introduction: Peter Dunn 02:28 Peter's Journey in Discipleship 03:41 The Concept of Disciple Making Movements 04:49 The Impact of Discipleship in Europe 07:16 The Power of Partnership in Ministry 10:27 The Role of Immigrants in Discipleship 16:23 The Challenges and Encouragements in Discipleship 19:23 The Vision of Disciple Making 19:39 Challenges in Sharing Faith 20:48 Resistance to Change in the Church 21:18 The Role of Tradition in Worship 21:52 Respecting and Challenging Church Traditions 23:25 The Struggles of Mission Work in the West 25:51 The Importance of Personal Faith Stories 26:55 The Challenge of Persuading Others in a Politically Correct World 27:09 The Decline of Faith in the West 28:24 The Importance of Building Relationships Outside the Church 28:53 The Challenge of Introducing Jesus, Not Just Church 29:41 The Power of Sharing Personal Faith Stories 38:16 The Power of God in Life and the Longing for Community 40:11 Conclusion: The Essence of Being Redeemed Through Jesus
