The Co-Mission Podcast
The Co-Mission Podcast is all about the church planting efforts of many faithful people in the Co-Mission network of churches in London. We see to honour the Lord Jesus in all we do and we’re passionate about reaching the lost by, along with others, planting churches into unreached areas of the city. ”We exist to plant churches to reach London for Christ” If you have questions or comments, or have a suggestion on how we can make this podcast a more helpful resource, email us at media@co-mission.org Find out more about the Co-Mission planting network at www.co-mission.org

1 in 7 Londoners are Muslim (a total of 1.3 million) and the numbers are only going up. If we’re going to love London with the gospel we’re going to need to take the good news about Jesus to our Muslim neighbours! This seminar will encourage and equip you for this task
Jimmy is a member of Christ Church Mayfair and a missionary to Muslims in London with the international mission organisation Pioneers. His work has an emphasis on equipping Christians to have productive faith conversations with Muslims. Jimmy and his wife Gina (also a missionary to Muslims) have twin daughters.
