Theological Famine in the Pacific Islands: Chris Bruno Speaks

In an island setting, lots of important goods are imported. But the church cannot afford to simply import all of its theology.

 

The Pacific Islands are staggeringly diverse—ethnically and religiously. Pastors and churches are starved for theologically rich, gospel-driven teaching and training. What strategy can solve this problem? In this episode, Chris Bruno provides answers and shares an important update about his ministry with Training Leaders International.
