S4 E8 Gordon McDade - Being a Peacemaker in a Divided City

In today's conversation, I'm joined by my good friend Gordon McDade, who hails from Belfast, Northern Ireland, where he still resides. Growing up, Gordon directly experienced and witnessed the conflict between those advocating for an independent Ireland and those loyal to the United Kingdom—an era known as The Troubles. In this tumultuous environment, Gordon felt called to become a pastor, mediator, and peacemaker in his divided city. Join us as Gordon shares the joys and struggles of cultivating peace, starting a church in the city's contested areas, and his harrowing experience of being caught in a bomb explosion.
