15: Nicky Gumbel - Alpha Course, the Future of Evangelism, and Embracing the Down-and-Out Approach

Season 2 of A Godzillion & One kicks off with one of my favorite people - Nicky Gumbel. Nicky is the Vicar (or as us Americans would say, pastor) of Holy Trinity Brompton in the heart of London. HTB is one of the largest churches in the UK and they are a key source of influence and encouragement to churches around the globe.

As and atheist turned Christian, Nicky shares the hard truth of finding faith in our current world and why evangelism is his highest call. Alpha Course, was birthed out of this desire to create a safe place for non-Christians to ask the big questions of life. Pioneered by Nicky, Alpha has developed into a global ministry reaching over 20 million people with the Gospel.

In this interview, Nicky explains the current challenges and opportunities of sharing your faith, leadership lessons learned throughout this pandemic season, and the "down-and-out approach" that has changed his church ministry.
