April 2011 BMH Editor’s Podcast Welcome to the FGBC World podcast, the program produced as a companion to the quarterly FGBC World magazine. Click on the link below to listen to this month’s program. In this issue, BMH executive director Liz Cutler Gates talks with Neil Cole, a Grace Brethren pastor and church planter, about starting new congregations in the Southern California-Arizona district of Grace Brethren Churches and the beginnings of Church Multiplication Associates. What began as a regional church planting initiative has developed into a ministry that is planting seeds of the gospel around the world. This interview was recorded last year, shortly after the release of his book, Church 3.0. In March, his next book, Journeys to Significance, A Road Map for Leadership Formation from the Life of Paul, hit bookstore shelves. Also in this program is an interview with Cecil O’Dell, a staff member of Grace Brethren International Missions who works with the Japanese Returnee Ministry in Southern California. He talks about his participation in January’s Ethnic Pastors Consultation. Read more about these stories in the Spring issue of FGBC World.
