Welcome to the Leadership Community Podcast.

In today's episode, we welcome back Ps Paul Benger for a conversation as part of our 'How To Series'.

Jonny talks to Paul about How To Activate The Gifts of the Spirit in the Local Church.

We believe this is a much-needed conversation, as God has given each of us gifts for use within the church and in everyday life. Enjoy listening to Paul as he talks through his thoughts on this topic.

In today's episode, we are in conversation with Gavin Calver, CEO of The Evangelical Alliance, who has been in this role for 6 years.

The Evangelical Alliance is made up of hundreds of organisations, thousands of churches and tens of thousands of individuals, joined together for the sake of the gospel. You can find out more about them at eauk.org

Gavin worked for Youth for Christ for 14 years and was the National Director of YFC for 7 years before joining the Evangelical Alliance team.

Our conversation was focused on ‘How to Reach the UK’, and is part of our new How to series.

You will hear Gavin talk about how 2025 felt like things had changed; instead of other years, which had been difficult, 2025 felt like he had the wind at his back. There is an awakening, and incredible stories are being told of people coming to Christ who never thought they would come to Christ.

We talked more about this and how churches can position themselves to make the most of the moment we find ourselves in. You are going to love this conversation.
