206. Aila Tasse – From ‘Expert’ to ‘Multiplying Leader’

Aila Tasse shares his remarkable journey from being a Muslim-background believer and respected ministry expert to embracing disciple making movements. Along the way, God challenged his assumptions, dealt with his pride, and reshaped his understanding of church, leadership, and multiplication. In this episode you’ll hear: How Aila moved from expert-led ministry to empowering ordinary believers. The paradigm shifts that transformed his understanding of church and leadership. Why discovery, obedience, and the Holy Spirit became central to movement growth. How God expanded the vision from reaching 14 unreached people groups in northern Kenya to a regional vision for 320 UPGs across eight nations—from Sudan to Tanzania and Zambia—with over 160 UPGs now engaged and 68+ movements underway. Why movement sustainability depends on raising multiplying leaders rather than building personal ministries. Aila also reflects on identity, success, and what it means to faithfully finish the race by investing in the next generation of movement catalysts. Reflection question: Where are you on your own disciple-making journey, and what is God asking you to change? What question do you need to bring to a coach or mentor as you continue to grow?
