Greg Opean is an Assisting Pastor at the Packinghouse Church in Redlands, California. Prior to that, Greg spent 17 years planting and pastoring churches in Hungary, and played a major role in the Calvary Chapel movement in Central & Eastern Europe.

This episode was recorded on site at Zichy Kastély in Vajta, Hungary, a property which Greg was involved in acquiring and developing. In this discussion, Greg and Brian talk about how God opened the doors for them to come to Yugoslavia and Hungary 35 years ago this month, and about how what began with a simple invitation became a thriving network of churches that continues today. We also talk about the challenges of spiritual warfare, and the beauty of discipleship through invitation.

Greg will be speaking at this year’s CGN International Conference, which will be held June 22-25 in Temecula, California. This conference is open to anyone in ministry, and we would love to see you there. Our keynote speaker this year is Alistair Begg. There will be workshops for every major area of ministry in a church, so the conference is not only for pastors, but for everyone in ministry leadership.
