Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of “abundance out of scarcity” with a discussion about the benefit of godly friendships during tough times. We briefly flipped through 1 Samuel, Chapters 18-20, to see how Jonathan was a friend to David during a tough time. We then had a call segment where we asked our listeners to share a story about a time when God provided them with a friend when they needed them the most. Then Drew Hunter joined us to discuss the beauty and community in godly friendship and how to find it. Drew is the Teaching Pastor of Zionsville Fellowship, where he provides overall leadership, biblical teaching, and serves as an Elder. He graduated from the Moody Bible Institute and the graduate schools of Wheaton College. He also authored the book, “Made for Friendship: The Relationship That Halves Our Sorrows and Doubles Our Joys.” We then had Nick Hall join us to talk about the growth of digital evangelism and how God has called us to rise. Nick is an evangelist and the Founder and President of Pulse Evangelism, an organization that exists to make Jesus known by reaching the lost and unleashing the evangelist.

Last week, Grady began a four-week series on the mission of the church. He ended by mentioning there are “Three great tasks” the church is to do: Worship God, Evangelize & Give Ourselves in Charity. This week, Phill will be exploring that first great task, Worship God. Why is worship the first task of the church? What does it mean to worship? And why does Sunday so often feel different from the rest of the week? It has brought Phill great joy to explore this task, and he is so excited to invite you into what he has learned.

Evangelize is a big word. We call ourselves evangelicals in the Christian faith, but only three times does it occur on the pages of Scripture. Interestingly, Philip is the only person, the one and only person, who gets the unique designation of evangelist.Philip, because of his willingness to the spirit, because of his boldness for the gospel, because of his love for people, he is used by God for one of the most significant moments in the entire Bible. Some churches are known for their songs and their worship band, some churches are known for their pastors and their preaching, and some are known for their strategy and their branding.What if we, as Elevate City Church, were known as the people who just couldn't stop talking about Jesus?Some of us need to follow in the footsteps of Philip and be bold, while others of us need to receive the gospel and be baptized! 26 Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Rise and go toward the south[d] to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” This is a desert place. 27 And he rose and went. And there was an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a court official of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure. He had come to Jerusalem to worship 28 and was returning, seated in his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah. 29 And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and join this chariot.” 30 So Philip ran to him and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” 31 And he said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him. 32 Now the passage of the Scripture that he was reading was this:“Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he opens not his mouth.33 In his humiliation justice was denied him. Who can describe his generation?For his life is taken away from the earth.”34 And the eunuch said to Philip, “About whom, I ask you, does the prophet say this, about himself or about someone else?” 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this Scripture he told him the good news about Jesus. 36 And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?” 38 And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him. 39 And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing. 40 But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he preached the gospel to all the towns until he came to Caesarea.Acts 8:26-40We'd love for you to subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications to get updates on our latest content and resources that will help more people know Jesus and people know Jesus more.GIVE : We believe that generosity is golden.

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Leon Adkins are answering a question from about evangelizing. What should we say and how? What was the pattern of Jesus in evangelizing?Thank you for listening and keep grace in focus!

What are you doing to evangelize the lost? The truth is, the crushing need of all of humanity is for a Savior. Whether you're “nice” and well-to-do or living in the slums, your only hope from the just wrath of God is through the Gospel, which “is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes” (Rom. 1:16). In this podcast, hosts Scott Brown and Jason Dohm discuss the need, scope, and motives for evangelism with pastor Rob Ventura—and how Christians can prepare themselves to share the Gospel, the focus of Ventura's new book, Equipped to Evangelize.

Mike Gormley emphasizes the importance of hope, while meditating on Pope Leo's reflections, praising his ability to speak on the human and spiritual level. Gormley also analyzes the Pope's General Audiences as he dissects two popular parables, “The Parable of the Sower” and the “Good Samaritan”. Snippet from the Show “Look at your life, look at the daily circumstances, and ask yourself, ‘Okay, what situation right now is God using, is God leveraging, to reach me, to bring the grace, of His word into my life?'” We want to hear from you!

Suffering for doing good leads to ,,,

“According to research, approximately 61 percent of U.S. teenagers never read the Bible, and 74 percent don't attend church regularly. That means well over half of middle and high school students in our nation aren't disciples and likely haven't put their faith in God. As followers of Jesus, what are we going to do about this?” asks Lee Rogers. He goes on to say: “Today in our nation there are over thirty-three million students in over sixty-nine thousand middle and high schools. Only 23 percent of those schools are known to have a campus missionary or a gospel-sharing club present. That leaves over fifty-three thousand schools with no known gospel-sharing presence. As Spirit-empowered witnesses, what are we going to do about this? In this episode of the Influence Podcast, I talk to Rogers about how to train students to evangelize their peers. I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host. Lee Rogers is director of Student Evangelism for Assemblies of God Youth Ministries and is general editor of The Campus Missionary Guidebook, published by Gospel Publishing House. ————— This episode of the Influence Podcast is brought to you by My Healthy Church, distributors of The Holy Spirit in the Life of the Discipler.

Is it okay to attend church virtually? What does it mean that the Holy Spirit "drove" Jesus into the wilderness? My friend is heavy into a psychological approach to making life work called NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). How can I share the gospel with her? My wife and I were invited to a same-sex wedding. Should we go?

Dave Vanvickle highlights the importance of helping the poor, loving the poor and even learning from them. In our poverty, we realize our reliance on the Lord. Let us never forget that the gravest form of poverty is to not know God.

In addition to Christ's priestly office, lay people are called to participate in Christ's prophetic and kingly offices. They take part in Christ's prophetic office by evangelizing and proclaiming Christ by word and with the testimony of their lives. Fr. Mike explains that the laity participate in Christ's kingly office in their hearts. They do this when they rule themselves and conquer sin, acting as virtuous leaders in the Church and society. Fr. Mike also reminds us that lay people should strive to be guided by Christian conscience in all their actions in the Church and society. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 904-913.
