Ep. 86 / From Young Parliamentarian to Church Planter with Devon Rachae

He became Grenada’s youngest senator at 22, with a clear path toward national leadership, and then he walked away. In this episode we speak with, Bishop Devon Rachae, as he tells the real story behind that decision and why a call to church planting carried more weight than a seat in parliament. Bishop Rachae shares in depth reflections on Christian leadership, vocational calling, and what it costs to truly follow one's convictions and walk by faith. We also widen the lens to the Caribbean church and the work of the Evangelical Alliance of the Caribbean, where Bishop Devon now serves as president. We talk about why evangelical churches have grown through culturally vibrant worship and bold evangelism, and why that same momentum can stall when discipleship is thin. Then the conversation turns practical and sobering: hurricanes, economic shock, long-term depression after disaster, and the pressure placed on leaders and communities when homes and church buildings are lost. Bishop Devon tells us what compassionate disaster response can look like, including rapid relief efforts from Samaritan’s Purse, and why sustainable livelihood matters alongside spiritual care.
