GoMission: Undoing Babel (with Brother Matt)

In this GoMission episode, Mark Gillmore sits down with Brother Matt to discuss a revolutionary breakthrough in missions — a tool that is literally undoing Babel. From his early call to the Middle East and a divine detour through sickness, Brother Matt shares how God’s “watch me” moments shaped his vision for reaching every language group with the gospel. Now through UKonvert, an AI-powered live translation platform, God is using technology to bridge language barriers, empower local churches, and open global doors — even through the upcoming World Cup. Discover how God is redeeming the confusion of languages and turning it into a catalyst for the Great Commission.
