Where is Lutheranism flourishing in Italy? The Rev. Roy Askins (Managing Director, Editorial and Theological Content with LCMS Communications) joins Andy and Sarah to share a special Lutheran Witness Podcast crossover episode. In this episode, Rev. Askins talks with the Rev. Tyler McMiller, LCMS missionary in Italy, to learn about the work of the Confessional Lutheran Church of Italy (CLCI). McMiller serves a number of house churches across the peninsula and recent developments — the ordination of two new local pastors — have greatly expanded the ability of the CLCI to proclaim the Gospel across the nation.
