What does it look like for the Church to faithfully live in the world without becoming shaped by it?In this episode, Daniel Williams sits down with Phil Metzger, Lead Pastor of Calvary San Diego and featured speaker at the CGN International Ministry Conference, to discuss mission, culture, church planting, and the role of the Church in today's world.Drawing from over twenty years of missionary service in Eastern Europe, Phil shares how God has shaped his understanding of ministry, the importance of listening across cultural differences, and why the Church must remain sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit in every generation.Phil also offers a preview of his upcoming conference message, exploring what it means for the Church to engage the world missionally, methodologically, and as a movement—while remaining distinct from the values of the world around us. 

What does it look like to pursue unity in a divided world?In this episode of the CGN Podcast, Daniel Williams and Brian Brodersen sit down with Evan Wickham—pastor of Park Hill Church in San Diego and worship leader—to discuss the beauty and challenge of cultivating unity within the body of Christ.Evan shares stories from eight years of church planting, navigating seasons of leadership transition, and preparing to become a grandfather. Together, they explore why clarity and love must go hand in hand, how worship can bring believers together across denominational lines, and why rediscovering the richness of the historic church can strengthen our witness today.From citywide prayer gatherings and songwriting sessions with Christians from different traditions to practical encouragement for pastors seeking deeper relationships within the broader church, this conversation is a timely reminder that Jesus' prayer for unity still matters.As we prepare for the CGN International Ministry Conference 2026, this episode invites us to consider what it means to be the church in the world—for such a time as this.Join us for the CGN International Ministry Conference, June 28–July 1, 2026, at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa.For registration and conference details, visit:CGN International Ministry Conference

What does it look like to be the Church in the world today?In this episode of the CGN Podcast, Daniel Williams sits down with Brad Hall, pastor of One Love Church in Sydney, Australia, and a main session speaker for the 2026 CGN International Ministry Conference. Brad shares his journey from planting churches in Hawaii and Australia to teaching Christian Studies in a local high school, where he engages daily with students wrestling with questions about faith, science, truth, and meaning.As Brad reflects on this year's conference theme, For Such a Time as This: The Church in the World, he emphasizes the importance of authenticity. In a culture flooded with competing voices, misinformation, and skepticism, Brad believes the Church has an opportunity to stand out by simply being genuine in its faith, relationships, and witness.The conversation explores the unique spiritual landscape of Australia, the hunger young people have for answers, and how ordinary conversations can become powerful opportunities for ministry. Brad also offers encouragement for pastors and church leaders who may be feeling weary, reminding them that God remains faithful and that perseverance in ministry is never wasted.About Brad HallBrad Hall began serving in pastoral ministry in 1995 and planted a church in Maui, Hawaii, in 1998, where he served for 12 years. In 2010, Brad and his wife, Christy, moved to Sydney, Australia. After several years serving in local churches, they planted One Love Church in 2017, where Brad continues to serve as lead pastor.
