171: Reflections from the Fourth Lausanne Congress (with Susie Njogu and A. S.)

Since 1974, the Lausanne Movement has hosted several Lausanne Congresses, momentous gatherings focused on the state of the Great Commission and collaboration for the future of global missions. In September 2024, over 5,000 believers from over 200 nations assembled in South Korea for the Fourth Lausanne Congress. Hear from two TeachBeyond members - Susie Njogu from Kenya and A. S. from a creative access location - about their experiences and where they hope this will lead in the future.
