Efrem Buckle, Deputy CEO and Director of Thought Leadership, encourages churches to cross cultures to love the neighbours God is bringing to London this Refugee Week.

When accommodation in East London closed during the pandemic, LCM church partner, East End Church, did not expect what would come next. As people seeking asylum moved in, a new kind of ministry emerged. One shaped by God, bringing people from all tribes and nations together.

Efrem Buckle, Director of Thought Leadership and Training, explores what life on the margins of London really looks like and shows how Jesus meets people there with power that can reshape families and communities.

A gifted footballer and member of the Webber Street team, Charles Yiadom-Konadu is using the universal language of the beautiful game to build friendships and share the message of Jesus with people experiencing homelessness.

In this church-focused bonus conversation, Jason Roach continues his discussion with Israel Olofinjana (One People Commission of the Evangelical Alliance) and John Stevens (Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches) on the importance of developing cross-cultural churches.

In this church‑focused episode, we explore why cross‑cultural competence isn’t an optional extra for churches, but part of God’s design for his people. Jason Roach is joined in this discussion by Israel Olofinjana (One People Commission of the Evangelical Alliance) and John Stevens (Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches).
