Latitude
How do we live out the mission Christ has given us? Latitude is a conversation about what it means to serve, love, and meet needs in our community and beyond. Each episode unpacks the heart behind Christian missions—why we go, who we serve, and how we can make an impact. Through insightful discussions, biblical reflections, and real-life stories from those on the mission field, we bring awareness to pressing issues like healthcare, education, poverty, and more. Whether it's a local initiative or a global effort, our goal is to inform, inspire, and equip the Church to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

Church Planting in Persecution: The Growth of the Fulani Church
What if you had never heard the name of Jesus?
Christ Methodist Church has partnered with the Fulani people, a nomadic and largely unreached Muslim group in North Africa, through the work of a missionary church planter. Despite facing persecution, a growing Fulani church is now being discipled and equipped for ministry. Locally, members of Christ Methodist are also engaging with the Fulani population in Memphis through English language classes, providing an opportunity to build relationships and share the gospel.
Bob and Laura Whitsitt share how Christ Methodist Church is supporting gospel outreach in North Africa and engaging Fulani families right here in Memphis.
