Is the Global Church Losing Hope or Finding It Again?| Ep. 85

Описание: What if the global Church is more hopeful than the headlines suggest?

In this conversation, Daniel sits down with Norival to break down brand-new findings from the Lausanne Movement’s Global Survey. The survey includes insights from around 1,100 Christian leaders across 120 countries, distilled into seven key takeaways. Together, they unpack the tension leaders feel right now, including a sense of decline compared to five years ago, alongside a growing, renewed hope, especially among younger leaders.

You’ll also hear why 95% of leaders agree the digital space is a real mission field, and why many still struggle with what faithful discipleship looks like online. We discuss the major barriers to Great Commission momentum, including secularism, political polarization, declining societal trust, and the consequences of ethical failures among Christian leaders. Finally, we explore what “trusted voices” look like around the world, and why that answer changes from culture to culture.

Watch to the end for a clear, hopeful framework for leading well in this moment.
