In this episode, Adam Kaloostian, Chris Gordon, and Dan Borvan explore the challenges and rewards of building a Reformed church culture that engages evangelicals without losing its theological distinctiveness. Adam shares updates on his church plant, Ventura Reformed, and reflects on lessons learned in outreach and discipleship. The conversation touches on making personal connections, the role of hospitality in evangelism, the importance of clear gospel preaching, and resisting the pressures of modern church consumerism. How can Reformed churches remain faithful while reaching people unfamiliar with historic Christianity? Tune in as we navigate these pressing questions.
