In this episode, we sit down with Pastor Armando Palazzo to hear the story of how Fusion Church grew from just 5 people to over 500 in regular attendance — in one of the hardest places to plant a church. Armando shares the challenges of launching in New York’s spiritually resistant culture, the intentional systems that keep their “back door” almost shut, and how their monthly Impact Ministry is turning skeptics and even atheists into followers of Jesus.

We also dive into Fusion’s digital strategy that’s reached over 3 million people with the gospel, the importance of authenticity in ministry, and the leadership health that fuels healthy church culture. Whether you’re a pastor, church leader, or simply passionate about seeing the gospel advance, this conversation will inspire you with practical insights for growth and long-term impact.
