Steve Cordle is the Executive Director of The River Network. The Global Methodist Church has partnered with him and his ministry in order to equip clergy and laity to be and make disciples, laboring in the Lord's harvest in this present age.

Steve was and is a prodigious clergyman, having made disciples and grown churches for decades while raising children with a godly wife.

In this conversation, Steve talks about his ministry, laying out his theological framework. We review his recent article in Firebrand "Can the Global Methodist Church Become a Movement?" (https://firebrandmag.com/articles/can-the-global-methodist-church-become-a-movement), and we talk about practical ways that his ministry can come alongside local churches and their leaders to change the culture, working to revert our institutions back into movements.
