    S2E2: Envisioning A Church For Mission

    Season 2 of The Mission Mindset - the Alpha Ireland Podcast - continues with more amazing content from our AIC22: Multiply Conference last September. This week we hear from Rev Eoghan Heaslip, Pastor of St Catherine's Church, Dublin 8, as he delves into Envisioning A Church For Mission. A powerful input, Eoghan examines how Mark 4:35 - 5:38 serves as a guide for how and why we should engage on mission. Eoghan examines our identity and influence when it comes to mission, and challenges us to ask "are we willing" when it comes to serving the Father.

    S2E1: Making Jesus' Last Command Our First Priority

    Welcome to Season 2 of The Mission Mindset, the Alpha Ireland Podcast. We're really excited to be sharing with you over the coming weeks ahead some of the amazing content from our AIC22: Multiply Conference, which took place in St Catherine's Church, Dublin 8, back last month. First up is our keynote address from Fr Columba Jordan of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal. Fr Columba spoke passionately and humourously on Making Jesus' Last Command Our First Priority.  It's all about why we should be on mission, and how we can keep our eyes focused on God, and relying on the Holy Spirit for inspiration and enthusiasm. It's worth sitting down with a cuppa over and making sure you have a pen and paper handy to scribble some notes!

    Episode 9: Forming Resilient Disciples

    This week John is joined by Rick Hill. Rick serves in leadership at Carnmoney Church and works for the Presbyterian Church in Ireland in the areas of discipleship and leadership. He is passionate about seeing every follower of Jesus equipped and mobilised to serve in God’s mission. Rick is the author of Deep Roots of Resilient Disciples, which you can learn more about here. John and Rick look at one of the key challenges facing the Church in Ireland today, namely ending people's purely cultural association with church and how this brings new opportunities for churches to intentionally build disciples who are ready for mission. They also reflect on the key themes from Rick's brilliant book Deep Roots of Resilient Disciples. There's also a great discussion of what it means to be an Alpha Church, and how that is lived out in today's Ireland. You can watch back the PRAXIS webinar The End of Church As We Know It here.
