What is The Propel Podcast?

Welcome to the Propel Podcast, inspiration and innovation to grow your church, hosted by Larry Witzel. This podcast offers every presentation from the annual Propel Conference on church growth.

Our goal is to offer practical training for effective evangelism in the Seventh-day Adventist ministry context, but we know the principles we talk about here are applicable in many other churches, as well. So, wherever you’re doing ministry, welcome to the Propel Podcast!
