Next Episode: Bilge (Part 2)

In 2015, Bilge left his life as a German academic and relocated his family to Turkey where they planted Projekt Istanbul. Christchurch Newport has supported this work from the beginning, and it was a pleasure to welcome him to preach on May 21.


The day before, Lewis sat with him to hear his story. In this first part, they cover Bilge’s early life in Hamburg - his origins and experiences as a Turkish immigrant, how Christ called him and his discovery of prayer.
