Welcome back to Christian in Progress with Samuel Perez. In this episode, Samuel introduces Mike Patino, CEO of Global Catalytic Ministries (GCM). Mike shares his incredible journey from being the youngest firefighter in Miami to leading a global disciple-making ministry. Mike discusses the mission of GCM, which focuses on making disciples in some of the most challenging regions of the world, including Iran, Afghanistan, and Mecca. He shares inspiring stories of transformation, such as the first-ever recorded baptism in Mecca and the miraculous encounters of women in Pakistan led to Christ through dreams. The conversation also delves into the future of GCM, including innovative projects like the coaching portal and the Maranatha Collective, a creative initiative aimed at capturing the sound of the underground church. Samuel and Mike emphasize the importance of unity and family within the body of Christ, encouraging listeners to get involved and support the mission of GCM. Whether through donations or becoming a disciple-maker, there are numerous ways to contribute to this life-changing work. For more information and to get involved, visit catalyticministries.com.
