Parker Green is a father, disciple maker, church starter, preacher, author.  He and his wife Jessi founded Salt Churches and Saturate Global. His newest book is Way of the Violent: An urgent message to the Christian Man.  His passion is to see men come alive with the revelation of who Jesus really is and can be right now to them. 

​In this episode we discuss the crazy couple years of revival and persecution that the Green's had.  How discipleship is not just an optional process for churches to have.  We talk about finding the REAL Jesus and what it means in your life when He takes control.  

Be sure to check out my episode with his wife, Jessi Green, in Season 2 Episode 29 https://everyday-discernment.simplecast.com/episodes/season-2-episode-29-jessi-green-on-igniting-the-wildfires-of-revival-and-why-discipleship-and-discernment-are-key-ingredients
