In conversation with Bishop Given Gaula: How understanding context leads to great receptivity

In this interview, Revd Paul Pavlou from our team at Plant Anglican speaks with Bishop Given from the Diocese of Kondoa in Tanzania. Bishop Given shares his experience as an evangelising bishop and how this has helped the diocese multiply rapidly, while also leading his team to broaden their focus to discipleship. With a strong commitment to being missionally front-footed, they have found remarkable receptivity by taking the time to understand each context in which they plant churches. Bishop Given also shares how empowering women and using schools as bridges for peace have become key parts of their ministry—and have seen significant success.
