Would the apostle Paul recognize your church? In this episode, John talks with Alan Ch'ng about the different expressions of the Church around the world. One thing remains constant - there needs to be authentic community and an outward-focused mission of making disciples in order to be a healthy church. A difficult combination, but certainly achievable with the help of the Holy Spirit.

Alan Ch'ng is the International Vice President of The Navigators and has decades of experience leading cross-cultural missions and disciple-making efforts around the world. His leadership has shaped The Navigators' global strategy, and his heart for the church as a community of belonging resonates deeply in all of his work.

In this episode:

• Kingdom of God vs. Church
