In this thought-provoking episode, Marlo and Tom sit down with Jeremy Beer, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of AmPhil, to explore the life and legacy of Francisco Garcés—a missionary often overlooked in the grand narrative of history. Together, they delve into what set Garcés apart as a “different kind of missionary,” examining his unique approach to faith, culture, and community during a transformative period in the Americas.
The discussion broadens to tackle the complex legacies of missionaries like Garcés, whose work represents a fascinating interplay between church and state. Jeremy offers a fresh perspective on retrieving the contributions of Spanish missionaries, framing them not just as agents of their time but as figures of enduring significance.
From the challenges and triumphs of mission work to the enduring questions about cultural exchange, this episode will leave you reconsidering what it means to live a life of service and vision. Join us for an engaging conversation that connects history, faith, and the search for truth.
