Nomad, Christian community, mission and the future of the church.

On this month's show, I'll be speaking to author, speaker, founder of the Soul Survivor Church

and Soul Survivor Conference, Mr Mike Pelovacci. And then, as usual, we will chew the

cud about what he has had to say.

It is a real pleasure this month on Nomad podcast to welcome Mike Pillavachi. He is an international speaker and author in the 90s.

He planted a church called Soul Survivor in Watford.

He established Soul Survivor, the conference, which over the last 20 years or so,

has become one of the biggest youth festivals, Christian youth festivals in the whole world. And on a very

personal note, I've always appreciated the extent to which humor and humility have played a part

in Mike's ministry, as he has led many thousands

of young people to Jesus, inspired them in their discipleship and released them in leadership

and mission. And again, on a personal note, had a very significant impact in my own Christian journey.

So Mike, it's a real pleasure to have you on the podcast. Welcome to the show.

It's great to be here and be with you. And that was, yeah, yeah, great. And just incidentally,

you have been the most difficult person to track down for an interview, even more challenging

than Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury. Are you serious? It's true.

It's true.

Is that right?

I spent half my year in other countries that might have something to do with it.

Yeah, sure.

We chat to people on the podcast a lot about church and community and mission and things

like that.
