S2:39 | How the 'Simple Church' Is Reaching Canada's Campuses (ft. Robin and Laura Wallar of Lift Church)
Episode Description
Robin and Laura Waller of Lift Church share how a desperate first-year prayer for a church at McMaster University became a multiplying movement of “simple churches” now spread across nine campuses in Southern Ontario, with eyes on McGill and French Canada. They unpack how their house-based simple churches function as the core unit of discipleship and mission, why every real member is embedded in one, and how this structure lets them raise up student leaders who can plant new works in just a few years. Robin and Laura also get candid about co-leading as a married couple, raising kids as co-laborers in a student neighborhood, limiting screens to cultivate deep connection, and the bittersweet cost of continually sending their best to pioneer new campuses in one of the most secular regions of the world.
