Season 4 of Church Potluck kicks off with a joyful, thoughtful dive into Christian missions as Dale welcomes media pro and new colleague Margaret Ndwandwe and her newlywed husband Xolani from Eswatini (formerly Swaziland). They share their long-distance love story born on the mission field and introduce the Bound Together Eswatini Partnership, a long-standing coalition focused on evangelism, discipleship, meeting human need, and church planting—including sustained food relief during COVID. We unpack Eswatini’s unique context (an absolute monarchy, culturally Christian schools, and syncretistic challenges like the Jericho movement) and how culturally humble, locally led missions avoid exporting Western culture. There’s laughter, too—a “Rome, Georgia or Rome, Italy” game, Mexican-food fandom, and deer roaming campus—plus an open invite to churches interested in partnering (see SwaziPartnership.com).
