S1E5 - Raising Up Leaders: Reaching a generation with Ness Wilson

'The duty of every leader is to raise up other leaders' - If you've spent any amount of time around church or ministry leadership you will probably have heard countless times, which is good. Because it's true. But (as every Christian will know) just because something is true, doesn't mean it's easy to apply. Join us as we interview Ness Wilson and get her wisdom and insight about how to do so.

S1E4 - Just Living: Engaging Students in Social Justice Esther Swaffield-Bray

"We're in a fortunate time when a justice-seeking person is cool - it's attractive, and it's fashionable. Whatever the motivation may be I'm not that fussed - so long as we can connect the dots back to Jesus" - Esther Swaffield-Bray. . Okay, that's great: but how do we do that? . On today's episode, we ask Esther that question and many more. . .

S1 Bonus - Making Small Groups Unmissable Meetings: a mini-episode with Rich Wilson

Have you ever been part of a church service, prayer meeting, or festival where God is so evidently present that no-one wants to leave? Imagine if that was what happened in your small groups every week. You would quickly find that new groups would have to be started to just to keep up with demand. And that is how the Fusion Movement started. In this mini-episode of the podcast, we ask Fusion Movement team leader Rich Wilson - who was running those groups in the early days - how our groups can look like that: how our small groups can become unmissable meetings.

S1E3 - Going somewhere?: Getting a vision for student ministry with Rich Wilson

Whether you lead a small group of 5 people, a ministry of 500 you need a vision - a sense of where God is leading the group. But what to do when you can't see this little bit of the big picture? And what role does the local church have in seeing students come to know Jesus? Join us as we ask these questions - and many more - of Rich Wilson. Team leader at Fusion.

"Discipleship is the process of becoming who Jesus would be, if He were you." - Dallas Willard I love this quote.
