What is your true mission here on earth? In this solo episode, Dave dives into what it actually looks like to advance the Kingdom of Heaven in our modern, busy world and also shares his top tips for shifting from a routine faith to a missionary heart. Being a missionary disciple isn't about checking off a religious "to-do list." It's about a daily, radical rediscovery of Jesus Christ. Dave reminds us that because Heaven is our true home, we should feel a certain "holy discomfort" in this life—a restlessness that drives us to put our daily routines at the foot of the Cross and lean entirely on Him.

Evangelization requires vulnerability. Fear of rejection often holds us back from inviting others to Christ. Dave and Gomer sit down with Jonathan Cardinal, Senior Regional Director at FOCUS, to discuss the power of one-on-one encounter, confronting the fears that keep us silent, and what it truly means to live as a missionary disciple. Together, they explore how each of us is called to be a living witness, leading others not just by words, but by example. We want to hear from you!

What are the two biggest issues that modern Jewish people typically have when it comes to accepting the Gospel? According to Dr. Brian Crawford, it narrows down to the Biblical teaching on the Trinity and the human incarnation of God made flesh. Brian is the director of digital evangelism for Chosen People Ministries. He is also the author of The Scandal of a Divine Messiah: A Response to Maimonidean and Kabbalistic Challenges to the Incarnation. Brian discusses the sensation of the increasingly popular replacement theory in modern American churches and why Jews tend to be remarkably secular, despite being God's chosen people. Brian urges Christians to cultivate a heart for sharing the Gospel with the Jewish community. He also points out that, according to Scripture, all believers are one and united in Christ (Galatians 3:28).TAKEAWAYSThe Jews are factually God's chosen people, even if this special status does not ultimately result in their salvationJewish people do not identify with the modern vernacular of the Christian churchJudaism today rejects the trinity and Jesus's deity, but this was not always the caseBrian lived for nine years within a Jewish orthodox community in Brooklyn, New York, and led many to the Lord

In this episode, I sit down with my 10-year-old son for a simple, honest conversation about our mornings, our home life, and the rhythms we're still learning as a family. We talk about what self-discipline looks like for him in the mornings. He shares the areas in which he hopes our family can still grow this year. We also touch on homeschooling, how we talk about faith in our home, and what sharing the gospel looks like as a kid. If you're a parent navigating discipline, routines, faith, or simply wondering what your children are absorbing from your home, I hope this conversation encourages you to slow down, listen, and give yourself grace.
Welcome to the Evangelism Is Easy Podcast, where we equip everyday believers to boldly share their faith and make disciples in their daily lives.In this episode, Pastor Chris Donald brings clarity and freedom to the message of the gospel—reminding believers that the gospel is truly good news, not a message of condemnation, pressure, or fear. This conversation reframes evangelism as an overflow of relationship, not religious performance, and challenges listeners to share the Jesus they have experienced, not just the Jesus they've learned about.Pastor Chris unpacks why effective evangelism begins with understanding and articulating the gospel clearly. This episode confronts the misconception that the gospel starts with condemnation and instead returns to the heart of Jesus: not to condemn the world, but to save it. Through John 3, 1 John, and Acts, Pastor Chris explains why believers are called to witness from personal encounter, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and why clarity is key when sharing the gospel.In this episode, we cover:Why the gospel is genuinely good newsHow to preach people out of condemnation and into lifeWhat John 3:17 reveals about the heart of GodWhy we share the Jesus we've experienced, not a textbook versionWhat it means to be a Spirit-empowered witness (Acts 1:8)A testimony from Brazil that highlights the power of clear gospel communicationWhy every believer must be able to articulate the gospel simplyEquipping + Practical Ways to Share the Gospel: Pastor Chris provides simple, everyday tools to help believers confidently share their faith, including:Sharing your personal testimony of how Jesus changed your lifeAsking permission before sharing the gospel to create openness and trustUsing two simple gospel questions from John 3 to guide conversationsKeeping the message centered on Jesus, not religion or debateRelying on the Holy Spirit rather than perfect wordingInviting people into relationship, not just a momentAction Step:Ask the Holy Spirit, “What's one place this week where I know God is asking me to step out?”Give Him your yes—and let us know in the comments how it goes.Resources and Links: Get equipped to share your faith: www.33rdcompany.org Connect with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/33rdcompany 33rdCompany YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thirtythirdcompany 33rdCompany Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/33rdcompany/ If you want to be equipped to share your faith and make disciples, text SEND ME to 59090.

Fr. Mike shares how verse 1 Peter 3:15 about being ready to give a reason for the faith that is within us has been one of the most influential Bible verses for him. As we start reading 1 Thessalonians today, Fr. Mike also highlights how Paul is encouraged by the faith of the Thessalonians and stresses the importance of not only sharing the gospel but also sharing our very selves. Today's readings are 1 Peter 3-5, 1 Thessalonians 1-3, and Proverbs 30:15-16. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

A sober look at global faithfulness serves as a mirror for believers who often forget the cost of following Christ. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar consider the weight of persecution as they reflect on how Christians in Turkey face real danger for sharing the gospel, a stark contrast to the ease of access in the United States. They note that believers in Muslim contexts live with constant questions about government intervention, yet persecution has unified the small Christian remnant. The guys affirm that it is understandable to feel nervous when sharing the gospel, since even Paul had concerns but still chose to obey God rather than man.The conversation shifts to what fuels courage, and the guys return to the cross where hostility met perfect love. They discuss how raising God's truths often sparks tension, which is why gentleness is crucial. Jesus warned that the world would hate His followers just as it hated Him, yet His response to persecution was marked by sacrifice and humility. The early church served instead of retaliating, but once Christianity was Romanized, this attitude changed; the guys encourage believers to recover a Christlike way of fighting for truth, especially when loving enemies feels unnatural.They then consider what believers should do when hostility comes from family. The call is to understand the other person's perspective while remaining faithful. Jesus delivered a perfect message and was still rejected, so modern believers should expect the same. The guys warn that Christians can invite ridicule by arguing instead of witnessing, forgetting that they, too, once stood opposed to the gospel. A humble heart aims to make the message clear so the lost might see their need for the Savior and trust God to bring salvation. Evangelism and discipleship go together, shaped by sincerity and reliance on the Lord.Finally, the guys note that many present-day atheists are less focused on the existence of God and more on social and cultural issues, which is why understanding cultural questions is important. Early believers lacked legal protection but relied on the Spirit, and the guys highlight prayer as the true source of strength. Oscar recalls moments when God made him feel incapable so he would depend on the Lord, while E.Z. often prays that unnecessary anxiousness would be removed. Authenticity cannot be faked, and believers should pray both before and after sharing the gospel. The call is to look to God's greatness, not the world's resistance, remembering that faithfulness often invites opposition rather than applause.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Courage in the Christian life becomes most evident when faith faces real pressure. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar discuss how believers in places like Turkey encounter genuine danger for sharing the gospel, prompting the guys to reflect on nervousness, sacrifice, and obedience in hostile environments. They stress the importance of looking to the cross for strength, responding to opposition with gentleness, and remembering that even Jesus was rejected despite delivering a perfect message. They encourage believers to approach resistant family members with empathy, avoiding arguments rooted in pride rather than witness, and to trust God to work through humility and clarity. The guys also emphasize the significance of cultural awareness, prayerful dependence on the Spirit, and genuine authenticity, reminding Christians that faithfulness may bring resistance instead of applause. In every situation, the call is to remain steady, compassionate, and anchored in the greatness of God.Send us a textThanks for listening!

What does it mean to be a good and faithful servant? Dave catches a key detail in the Parable of the Talents: God doesn't give us all the same amount of talents. God will never give us more than we can handle, while at the same time, God sees something more in us than anyone else ever can, including ourselves! Our goal is to use our talents to glorify the Lord so that we can hear at the end of our lives, “Well done, my good and faithful servant.” We want to hear from you!

Most of us want to be able to share big and important truths with those who think and believe differently than we do, but find ourselves either shrinking back in fear or getting sucked into arguments that quickly devolve and turn ugly. Both responses stem from fear and challenge our ability to fulfill the greatest call Jesus gave us, and that’s to share the gospel with those who don’t yet know Christ. In this episode, host Jennifer Slattery speaks with apologist, pastor and church planter Dave Montoya on all the reasons these conversations feel so difficult and have the potential to turn so hostile, how to analyze our unique triggers, and create more fulfilling and fruitful discussions with those who hold a vastly different view of our world than we do. Discussion/Reflective Question: What resonated with you most in this episode? When it comes to discussing big truths with those with whom you disagree, do you most frequently tend to get sucked into a tense argument or try to avoid the discussion, and why do you think this might be? Consider a "truth discussion" when you became reactive or withdrawn. What factors might have impacted your reaction? How difficult do you find it to see commonalities between yourself and those with whom you disagree on issues about which you feel deeply passionate, and why do you think this is? According to Dave Montoya, we should approach anger with caution. Why did he suggest this, and how do you feel regarding his perspective? What is one action step God might be inviting you to take having listened to this episode?
