Learning from the Church in Iran (ft. Phil Moore)
Episode description
This week Phil Moore, church leader and author of the excellent Straight to the Heart Bible Commentary series, joins Matt to discuss his most recent book, called The Forgotten Manifesto of Jesus, in which he shares stories and lessons learnt from the revival in Iran and its overflow in other nations.
Post Covid 19, Phil moved on from leading a large and thriving church in SW London to focus on taking the gospel personally into the streets, bars and council estates in his neighbourhood, where he's looking to meet those who would not be likely to come to church. He has been inspired, mentored and taught by the leaders of the underground Iranian church who have drawn him back to some of the key teachings of Jesus in the gospels about mission.
Phil challenges the church in the West to adopt a humble posture, to learn from where the church is growing and to consider radically different models of disciple-making that we have been used to.
