Scott and his wife, Rachel Partridge, are church planters and International Mission Board team leaders for North Germany serving in Hamburg, Germany. Though living in a country rich with Christian heritage, Scott estimates less than 2 percent of Hamburg’s two million residents identify as evangelical Christians. Instead, Scott and Rachel find hearts have hardened and people often view faith as a private matter or thing of the past. As they meet people and build relationships, Scott said, “We are always looking for a way to bridge the gospel.” And despite the obstacles, those gospel conversations are leading to new churches planted and believers who are being discipled in evangelism.
