Global demographics are rapidly changing, presenting both challenges and opportunities for fulfilling the Great Commission.

In this episode, we welcome filmmaker and advocate Pearl Ganta to explore these shifts, particularly the rise of youth populations in the Majority World. Through her work in media, filmmaking, and with the Apnao Foundation, Pearl sheds light on how these demographic changes demand creative approaches to Christian engagement and discipleship.

Dr. Matthew Niermann, further deepens the conversation by analysing data from the "State of the Great Commission Report" revealing a diverse and promising landscape for the global Christian presence.
