    Beyond “religious tourism”: why mission still matters

    In this episode of the Elim Leaders Podcast, Mark Pugh talks with Marty Davison, whose own journey began with a single invitation to a short-term trip in Brazil. Marty was a dentist, comfortable, career-focused, and quietly cynical, until God used that trip to reshape everything. Calling. Character. Direction. Even who he would one day marry. Together, Mark and Marty explore why the Great Commission still matters, why “going” is more than geography, and how local churches can take meaningful steps towards the nations without losing sight of their neighbourhoods.

    After 35+ years of gospel ministry, evangelist Marilyn Harry's passion for souls and healing hasn't dimmed. In this powerful conversation, she shares wisdom from decades of seeing God's power at work - including a baby coming back to life in her arms, tent campaigns where hundreds found Christ, and countless healings. Discover: How she's maintained fresh fire through decades of ministryThe power of resilience in facing opposition as a woman in ministryPractical, detailed guidance on praying for the sickWhy looking into people's eyes reveals what to pray forThe importance of not rushing healing ministryHow to handle disappointment when healing doesn't comeDeliverance ministry with dignity and compassionWhy "if you pray for 10 people, you'll see more healed than if you pray for five" Plus, an incredible testimony of healing from the Elim Leadership Summit - a woman born deaf who can now hear. Marilyn's message is simple but powerful: "It's not my responsibility to heal people, but I have the privilege of coming before God and asking. We are in the modern church, and the one thing we cannot do without is the anointing." Don't go by feelings. Build your faith through God's Word. Create space for the miraculous.

    Gen Z, the quiet revival & why this moment matters with Tim Alford

    Something remarkable is happening among young people. Church attendance for Gen Z has quadrupled. Bible sales are soaring. Spiritual hunger is everywhere, but it's not exclusively Christian. In this essential conversation, Tim Alford (National Director of Limitless) joins Mark Pugh to unpack: Why Gen Z are spiritually open in unprecedented waysThe collapse of New Atheism and the mental health crisis driving this momentHonest talk about social media addiction - for leaders and young peoplePractical digital boundaries that actually workWhy churches need spiritual experience, not just informationHow to make room for God's presence in our gatheringsThe power of intergenerational spiritual family "You can't develop deep spirituality in eight-second reels," Tim warns. "If we have a generation who continues to be digitally addicted and wildly overstimulated, those things are falling on shallow soil." This is a moment the church cannot afford to miss, but we need to do things differently.

    Generosity starts now: why leaders must break the silence on money
