One of the world's leading missiologists, Alan Hirsch, comes to us from Australia, explaining how we should question titles but embrace giftings in the church. Learn about the gifting that Christ has given his church, outlined in Eph 4, and a test we can take to help us understand the roles of: apostle, prophet, evangelist, shepherd, teacher.

Kathryn and Alan discuss how these giftings have a scope way beyond church and ministry staff positions. They also talk about how certain leadership gifts have been elevated in this season of the Western Church, and how we need to elevate, and refuse to quench, all of the gifts... in order to see the future Church flourish.
