How are LCMS missionaries sharing the Gospel with Persian refugees in Germany? The Rev. Dr. Christian Tiews (LCMS Missionary serving in Hamburg, Germany) joins Andy and Sarah to talk about his path to the LCMS and missionary service, the community he serves in Hamburg, how this community has changed with an increase of refugees, the historical reasoning for Persians being open to the Gospel, how he serves refugees in Germany, and the incredible ways God is working in the lives of these refugees.

As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world.
