    #63 | Joanne Lewis | Going and Growing as a Laborer

    Our guest this week is Joanne Lewis, who has faithfully labored and discipled since her college days. Joanne came to Christ at the University of Montevallo in the early days of Campus Outreach and embarked on her "life of adventure”with her husband Brian Lewis (episode #60). Today, she lives in Memphis, TN, and continues to invest her time in Campus Outreach and women in ministry. Joanne's passion stems from the reality that the Lord grows us as we go, and we go as we grow. She desires to see the amazing things God will do with our availability. Movement Spotlight: Campus Outreach Athens Season 4 will focus on our definition of a laborer, “a person mobilized through the church to live out Christ-centered identity with Spirit-filled character, who is governed by a Biblical worldview and who engages persuasively among non-Christians with the gospel and is equipped to multiply this lifestyle in others.” Music by QubeSounds and Bamboo Corporate _________________ If you enjoyed this episode, subscribe to the show on your favorite podcasting service to receive new episodes as soon as they are released.

    #62 | Blake Buckman | The Simplicity of a Laborer

    Our guest this week is Blake Buckman, Area Director with Campus Outreach Lexington, Kentucky. Blake is a blue-blood Kentuckian and loves to labor where his roots are strong. Blake came to faith in college through the faithful ministry of a few CO staff. His staff experience came when he felt so strongly about spending his days sharing Jesus on campus, “I can do nothing else.” Through fruitful seasons and very hard seasons, Blake boldly relies on the simplicity of the gospel and the saving grace of Jesus to continue to labor. Blake also shares about the incredible fruitfulness of CO Lexington's recent years on campus and how they strive to continue developing Christ-like laborers who can engage persuasively in any context with the good news of salvation.

    #61 | Sarah L. | A Laborer's Burden for Multiplication, “It Can't End with Me!”

    Our guest this week is Sarah L., on staff with Campus Outreach Birmingham, England. Sarah shares her upbringing as a child of Campus Outreach staff, her conversion, and the first twinges of a desire to become a laborer. She shares her reflections on what it means not only to be a follower and disciple of Jesus, but also a laborer in God's harvest field. Sarah's burden is to see multiplication happen all over the world, especially among the multiple worldviews, religions, and nationalities she works with on the U.K. campus.  Sarah's passion and resolve to be a laborer can be heard when she says, "Lord, you've got to take this to the next generation, and they have to be able to multiply this to the next generation, it can't end with me!” Movement Spotlight: Campus Outreach San Diego Season 4 will focus on our definition of a laborer, “a person mobilized through the church to live out Christ-centered identity with Spirit-filled character, who is governed by a Biblical worldview and who engages persuasively among non-Christians with the gospel and is equipped to multiply this lifestyle in others.” Music by QubeSounds and Bamboo Corporate _________________ If you enjoyed this episode, subscribe to the show on your favorite podcasting service to receive new episodes as soon as they are released.

    SPECIAL EPISODE | Rev. Frank Barker | The Mission [ARCHIVE]

    This week, we are posting a message by Reverand Frank Barker from the 1999 Campus Outreach Christmas Conference, "He Is No Fool”, organized by CO Birmingham, AL. In the weeks following the 2026 CO NatCon, the missional drive that permeates Campus Outreach ministries on college campuses worldwide serves as a reminder of the impact that Rev. Barker had on the ministry in its founding and expansion. Rev. Barker's simple and authentic explanation of 5 Biblical Motives for our missional response to the gospel is compelling – "That's the greatest thing in the world,” he concludes. Enjoy this archive delivered to a previous generation and be encouraged to continue laboring today.

    #60 | Brian Lewis | Being a Laborer is a Missional Identity

    Our guest this week is Brian Lewis, Pastor of Outreach at Second Presbyterian Church in Memphis, TN. Brian spent over 30 years on staff with Campus Outreach before transitioning to pastoral ministry at the church where he served as Regional Director for Campus Outreach Memphis. Brian's fervor for evangelism and multiplying discipleship is clearly seen as he shares about his conversion, ministry experience, and current efforts to be a laborer in God's harvest field. Brian's discipleship emphasis on being in Christ and his missional drive stem from being compelled by Christ, his personal Lord and Savior. We kept every minute of his interview intact because it was too good to cut!  Movement Spotlight: Campus Outreach Minneapolis Season 4 will focus on our definition of a laborer, “a person mobilized through the church to live out Christ-centered identity with Spirit-filled character, who is governed by a Biblical worldview and who engages persuasively among non-Christians with the gospel and is equipped to multiply this lifestyle in others.” Resources: The Cross of Christ - John StottJohn Hannah - Leadership in the ChurchMusic by QubeSounds and Bamboo Corporate? _________________ If you enjoyed this episode, subscribe to the show on your favorite podcasting service to receive new episodes as soon as they are released.

    Our guest this week is Kike Astorga, Regional Director of Campus Outreach Guadalajara, Mexico. Kike is a native of Guadalajara, commonly referred to missiologically as the center of "the circle of silence” in Mexico, where only 1-2% of the population identifies as evangelical Christian. Kike's personal testimony of faith, his drive to tell others about the gospel, and being convinced to labor among his own people in Jalisco, Mexico, are inspiring to hear. Kike also shares about his family and how good the Lord has been to them in the midst of hardship. The team in Guadalajara is experiencing a movement, and God is doing much to exemplify what can happen when a ministry is dedicated to walking faithfully with Christ and developing new believers into laborers.  Movement Spotlight: Campus Outreach Guadalajara, Mexico.
