<![CDATA[The Ethnos360 Podcast]]>Vital topics, honest conversations and unpacking the Great Commission

Curious about missions? Wondering what it really takes to reach the unreached? The Ethnos360 Podcast is your front-row seat to honest conversations with people who’ve been there. From practical tips to powerful testimonies, we’ll help you navigate the questions, challenges and joys of stepping into God’s global plan — whether you’re just exploring or already on the journey. 


You'll hear:

  • About God's Word and its role in missions
  • About cross-cultural living and ministry
  • First-hand accounts from Bible school students and teachers
  • Practical steps for serving with families
  • How to plant churches that endure
  • How to support the missionaries in your life
  • How to stay involved when you can't go ... yet

Our podcast is made up of three distinct shows:

Real People, Real Stories: Unscripted conversations that help you see how God uses the willingness of people like you to do incredible things for His glory. Though the stories and places our guests have served all sound different, the theme running through every conversation is God’s faithfulness.

Rooted & Mature: Dive into the choices made, the values held and the methods used by us and our Global Partners, talking honestly about the successes and failures we’ve seen.

The Bible & Missions Podcast: Alan McDole interviews missionaries, Bible Institute professors and students to explore biblical missions and inspire the next generation to get involved in what God is doing around the world.
