Europe today has wandered far from its roots in the Protestant Reformation. The goal of this talk is to address the challenges of discipling new believers who are more secular in their worldview than ever before. It addresses:
(1) The post-Reformation spiritual catastrophe in Europe and why it happened;
(2) keys to changing that through robust discipling and church-planting; and
(3) a 2020 case study from Geneva, the city of Calvin.
