    Kent Parks: Understanding the Depth of Global Disciple-Making

    During the More Disciples Podcast Season 3, Kent Parks, a seasoned advocate for Disciple Making Movements, shares insights from his own transformative experiences in Indonesia and beyond. Grounding his perspectives in biblical texts and historical contexts, he discusses how radical breakthroughs in discipleship call for the unlearning of certain traditional approaches and a commitment to hands-on, on-the-ground methods that are more reproducible by disciples. Parks emphasizes the need to align missions with the audacious goal of reaching all people groups and to be ready to pay any price required. Despite the thrill and exhilaration of the discipleship journey, Parks is also mindful of the corresponding growth of evil, the bitterness, anger, and challenge that closely follows every positive stride forward, driving home the message of resilience in the face of adversity and the need for a unified global Ecclesia. 00:01 Introduction to the More Disciples Podcast 00:42 Guest Introduction: Ken Parks 00:51 Ken's Journey in Indonesia and the Birth of DMM 02:24 The Growth of Beyond and its Impact 04:00 The Power of Generational Growth 05:39 The Global Vision of the Ecclesia 14:08 The Importance of Disciple-Making 15:53 Lessons from the Early Days of DMM 20:46 The Growth and Momentum of Movements 21:30 The New Era of Missions 22:01 Honoring the Pioneers 23:25 The Battle Within and Without 28:12 The Role of Disasters in Missions 35:27 The Power of Prophetic Voice 37:36 The Call to Action 38:16 Closing Remarks and Prayer 40:27 Final Thoughts and Next Steps
