Proclaiming Christ in post-Christian France | Josh and Susannah Apieczonek, Missionaries
Manage episode 492995677 series 3305747
S7E01 - In this episode, we sit down with long-term gospel workers Josh and Susannah Apieczonek serving in Lyon, France, to explore the complexities and joy of ministry in a post-Christian European context. After 10 years in France, they reflect on the spiritual concerns of those around them, adapting to French culture, and the unique challenges of sharing Jesus in a secular society.
France presents a context where religious faith is private and rarely discussed. Yet, beneath the surface, there’s a surprising openness—especially among young people—who are spiritually curious. Josh and Susannah share about GBU (Groupes Bibliques Universitaires), France’s university Christian movement, and its strategic role in evangelism and church leadership development. They also tell powerful stories of people coming to faith through GBU and their local church.
This episode gives a real-life picture of long-term mission in France and the hope of the gospel in places where Jesus, as Saviour and King, is not yet known.
