In this podcast series, New Wine Director Dr. Paul Louis Metzger interviews various individuals who will be speaking at the Church & State conference on October 27 at Multnomah Biblical Seminary.
In this first installment our guest is David Austin. David is the Program Director for Mercy Corps’ operations in North Korea. Talk about an interesting job! David also serves on the New Wine Advisory Council and leads us well in the area of Christian diplomacy. He gave the keynote address at the 2012 New Wine banquet and famously confessed that the work our New Wine community engages in on 82nd Avenue during Friday Franks intimidates him more than the work he does in North Korea. We aren’t so sure about that, but we hope to learn from David’s conflict resolution skills in how he engages very complex and tense political situations.
Listen to this conversation with David Austin about what he’ll be discussing at Church & State and his work at Mercy Corps.
We hope you’ll join us for this event on October 27. For more information and to register, please visit the Church & State page.
