from ILI: History Makers Leadership Podcast · host International Leadership Institute
What if the biggest threat to discipleship is quietly living in your pocket? In this episode, Daniel sits down with Norival to continue their conversation around Carey Nieuwhof's seven church trends for 2026, focusing on three pressure points every Christian leader is feeling right now: evangelism, discipleship, and preaching. You’ll hear why evangelism is becoming bolder and more personal, and why inviting someone to church is good but not the same as sharing the gospel. They unpack how algorithms are shaping what people believe, and why pastors cannot compete on content alone when the world’s best communicators are always one tap away. The answer is not more output, but deeper relationship.Norival and Daniel also explore the shift in preaching from presentation to encounter, the growing hunger for authenticity, and the call to return to practices that cultivate intimacy with God. If you’re leading in a church, business, campus, or community, this conversation will help you respond with courage, clarity, and the next faithful step. Tune in to gain insights on leading people into real transformation in a noisy world.Resources:7 Disruptive Church Trends That Will Rule 2026 - https://careynieuwhof.com/church-trends-2026Support the showJoin a community of leaders who are ready to change history and make an impact in this world.
