• 31.15 Engaging post-Christian worldviews (Kamal Weerakoon)

  How can we respond to the complex & contradictory opportunities to present Christ to contemporary culture? This workshop outlines emerging worldviews—liberty, morality, religion, and spirituality—and shows how each one misunderstands the gospel in different ways. Kamal Weerakoon explores how they blind people to their need for Christ by proposing alternative ways of salvation. Understanding these belief systems and the ways of life they inculcate will help us minister to the different people we will encounter in this time of change.Kamal is an assistant minister at Gracepoint Presbyterian church and an adjunct lecturer at Christ College (Sydney) and the Reformed Theological College (Melbourne).YouTube VersionCREDITS:The Reach Australia Podcast is brought to you by ⁠⁠Reach Australia⁠⁠To pray for Reach Australia, join our ⁠⁠WhatsApp Group⁠⁠For ideas or questions please email ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠Support Reach Australia's online library

• 31.13 Preaching judgment with tears (Adam Ch'ng)

  How do you preach judgment without becoming cold—or crushed? Adam Ch'ng speaks to us from Isaiah 24 and the gut-wrenching reality of God’s wrath. It’s not just about saying hard things—it’s about feeling them. We explore what it means to be a preacher who isn’t just right in doctrine but broken in heart. If you’ve ever been tempted to soften the gospel or skip the hard bits, this one’s for you. Brace yourself: it’s heavy, honest, and full of hope.Adam Ch'ng is the senior pastor of Cross and Crown in the suburbs of Melbourne.CREDITS:The Reach Australia Podcast is brought to you by ⁠⁠Reach Australia⁠⁠To pray for Reach Australia, join our ⁠⁠WhatsApp Group⁠⁠For ideas or questions please email ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠Support Reach Australia's online library

• 31.12 Mission driving the ecosystem (Greg Lee)

  Mission isn’t a bolt-on feature or a singular gear in the engine; it’s the fuel that drives every part of the church ecosystem. Integrate it, and the whole church comes alive. Greg Lee unpacks how mission can and must be integrated into every area of church life, from welcoming to administration. Doing so doesn't drain ministry, it ignites it.Greg Lee is the lead pastor at Hunter Bible Church in Newcastle.YouTube VersionGreg's longer workshop from the 2024 National ConferenceThe Reach Australia Framework ebookCREDITS:The Reach Australia Podcast is brought to you by ⁠⁠Reach Australia⁠⁠To pray for Reach Australia, join our ⁠⁠WhatsApp Group⁠⁠For ideas or questions please email ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠Support Reach Australia's online library

• 31.11 Leading the team on mission (Phil Colgan)

  Evangelistic urgency must start with the leader. Phil Colgan argues that church leaders must personally bleed for the lost if they want to see their churches grow in evangelism. It's not merely about strategy and vision. Culture flows from the top, and that includes zeal.Churches that burn for the lost are led by pastors who bleed evangelism—personally, visibly, and relentlessly.Phil Colgan is the Senior Minister at St George North Anglican Church in Sydney.YouTube VersionCREDITS:The Reach Australia Podcast is brought to you by ⁠⁠Reach Australia⁠⁠To pray for Reach Australia, join our ⁠⁠WhatsApp Group⁠⁠For ideas or questions please email ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠Support Reach Australia's online library
