    What the Majority World Church Teaches Us About Living on Mission

    Three out of four unchurched Americans haven't been invited to church by anyone in the last year. Not once. And fewer than one in three Christians today say evangelism is their personal responsibility. The door is wide open — we're just not walking through it. In this episode, Jared and Leanne wrap up their series on what the Western church can learn from our brothers and sisters in the majority world — and this time, the lesson is about living on mission. Not as a program or an event, but as a way of life. They talk about what it looks like when believers treat every interaction as an opportunity, why the majority world church doesn't wait for open doors but walks through cracked windows, and how a Kenyan man with no pastoral training started a church in his living room with one Bible passage and six neighbors. Along the way, Leanne shares a personal story about a fifteen-dollar pillow that became an unexpected moment of witness, and Jared reframes the Great Commission as something that happens not when we go somewhere special — but as we're alreadygoing. ________________________________ Connect with Leanne on LinkedIn or via email at leanne@21cinternational.org.

    Why We Were Never Meant to Do This Alone | E52

    Individualism is rising around the world — and the United States is leading the charge. But is that how the Christian life was meant to be lived? In this episode, Jared and Leanne continue their deep dive into what we can learn from the majority world church, this time focusing on community: what it looks like, why Scripture demands it, and how to actually build it in your own life. The conversation moves from the research — a 51-year, 78-country study showing individualism on the rise everywhere — to the theology of why community matters, to what the majority world church gets right, and finally into deeply practical advice for finding and building real Christian community wherever you are. ________________________________ Connect with Leanne on LinkedIn or via email at leanne@21cinternational.org.

    Why We Need to Be Passionate for God’s Word

    Across the majority world, pastors walk for miles, sleep on roadsides, and give up entire days just to sit with God’s Word. Meanwhile, many of us with Bibles on every shelf and apps on every device struggle to open it consistently. In this episode, Jared and Leanne explore where that hunger for Scripture comes from, why it matters, and what it looks like to build it as a discipline in our own lives. The conversation traces a path from the majority world church’s desperate hunger for training in God’s Word, through the theology of why Scripture is so central to the Christian life, and into the deeply practical question of how each of us can cultivate our own passion for the Bible. ________________________________ Connect with Leanne on LinkedIn or via email at leanne@21cinternational.org.

    Three Things the Majority World Church Can Teach Us | E50

    The church in places like Kenya, Uganda, South Asia, and Latin America is doing some things that the American church can learn from. In this episode, Jared and Leanne share stories from the field and dig into three qualities we've seen again and again in the majority world church: a deep hunger for God's Word, a commitment to genuine community, and an urgency to live on mission.

    Following Jesus is A Meaningful Journey with a Certain Outcome | E49

    Russ and Sharon have been married for thirty-seven years, traveled the world together since college, adopted internationally, and even own a home in Morocco. Now they're stepping into a new kind of adventure — becoming ambassadors with 21C International, potentially opening a brand-new field in Liberia. In this conversation, recorded right after a week-long ambassador retreat, they share the journey that led them here — from a bake sale that raised five times its goal to a deepening sense that God was opening a door they hadn't expected to walk through. Along the way, they talk about what it means to trust God as a couple, how curiosity and faith work together, and what the Great Commission can look like on a random Monday.

    The Great Commission Starts with You | E47

    The Great Commission is one of the most well-known passages in the Bible — but are we actually living it out? In this episode, Jared and Leanne walk through Matthew 28:18–20 and wrestle with what it looks like to take these words seriously, not just as a concept we admire, but as a daily calling that applies to every believer. The conversation moves from the personal to the global — covering everything from how an individual can share their faith in everyday moments, to how local churches can multiply their impact, to what it means to have a heart for the global church no matter where you live. ________________________________ Connect with Leanne on LinkedIn or via email at leanne@21cinternational.org.
