For their 300th episode, the guys had the opportunity to sit down in studio with Dr. Raphaël Azenberger and Maxime Cauchon to talk about life and ministry in Quebec, and how learning to show and tell the Gospel in a post-Christian context is crucial for the Church in the US to learn.

Dr. Raphaël Anzenberger is a missiologist, evangelist, and leader serving the Francophone church. Originally from Strasbourg, France, he now lives in Montreal, where he works to strengthen gospel witness in the highly secular context of Quebec. He serves as Executive Director of the Evangelical Network of Quebec and the French-speaking Baptist Union of Canada and founded Station M, a hub focused on mission and church renewal. Raphaël and his wife Karen have four children.

Maxime Cauchon is a Canadian pastor, church planter, and missional leader serving as Director of Church Planting, Evangelism, and Multiplication for the Union of French Baptist Churches of Canada. He is also the Executive Director of a French-language media ministry broadcasting the Gospel across Quebec through radio, television, and digital platforms.

Passionate about reaching spiritual deserts in the Francophone world, Maxime equips leaders, trains evangelists, and builds innovative, collaborative mission strategies to see thriving Gospel communities planted in spiritually underserved regions.
