The Western Church is facing a crisis.
Unable to address the issues of our world and unaware of our own cultural captivity, we are caught between nostalgia for a past that no longer exists and a drive for the next new thing. Too often we settle for and sell a truncated Gospel and a truncated vision of the Christian life.
Apollos Watered exists to be a catalyst that encourages and equips Christians, leaders, and churches in their missionary encounter with Western culture.

“Hey church leaders, help is available! Apollos Watered is my go-to resource when pastors say, “I only have a short amount of time to lift my eyes above the day-to-day, point me to a resource that will help me wrap my head around the bigger picture and keep my ministry relevant.” Travis Michael Fleming has put together just such a resource, for you and your congregation’s use.”

"In the Land of a Billion Podcasts, Apollos Watered is a refreshing pool of nourishing voices providing Hope, Purpose and Truth."
Dr. Scott Sunquist
President
Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary
"Christian theology and certainly Christian discipleship in the 21st century can no longer be limited to scholastic forms and memorized questions and answers. Our discipleship, like that of Jesus with the Twelve and Jesus with the crowds, must involve dialog, irony, story-telling and even humor. In short, we learn more by being engaged through mind and emotions. Apollos Watered is a ministry that so engages Christian discipleship, and because of this I find it easy to recommend to others the creative dialogical teaching. [Oh, and Travis has a great laugh which helps.]"
