Neal Karsten Shares What God is Saying to the American Church by Grand Awakening

Neal Karsten grew up in West Michigan and came to know Jesus when he was at Hope College. With this major change in his life, Neal immediately gained a desire to see passionate believers raised up and empowered for mission. After working as a pastor within the traditional church for 10 years, Neal sensed a clear calling to see disciple making and simple church multiplication take place throughout North America. This work is continuing to multiply in many cities and states by the grace of God. He currently serves with Biglife as the Director of the work throughout North America. He and his wife Sara are the proud parents of three awesome daughters. In this podcast, Neal helps explain why the church in America has been in decline while the churches in persecuted lands have been growing. Bottom line: in many ways, the American church has been operating in a consumeristic fashion out of the flesh rather than daily dying to self and trusting Christ to miraculously do His work through us by His Spirit.
