Rev. Dr. Daniel Topalski is the Presiding Elder of the Global Methodist Church in Bulgaria. He is passionate in his desire to reclaim much of the Methodist legacy, and to speak at length about his hopes for Bulgaria and the world. In this conversation, we cover his personal history and the history of Methodism in Bulgaria. It is a very different context than the US. If we are serious about being a global church, then it requires for us to learn about commonalities and differences across the world. Bulgaria has a unique set of challenges that offer both promise and frustration for modern evangelism. Spend some time with us to learn how to pray for this new movement!
