Podcasts about sharing the gospel

Mike Gormley and Dave VanVickle discuss the importance of understanding priests; what their role is, how they should be set apart and how we should approach the priesthood. They also talk about the significance of sacrifice and the biblical roots of the priesthood. Snippet from the Show Jesus Christ is the high priest, he's the unique mediator. There is no priesthood without Jesus Christ. When you are baptized into Christ, you enter into the role of priest, prophet and king. So the whole community, every Christian man and woman participates in the baptismal priesthood of Christ. We want to hear from you!

In this episode of the Reformed Brotherhood, Jesse and Tony dive into Colossians 4:2–6, unpacking its rich themes of persistent prayer, evangelism, and the importance of gracious communication. They explore Paul's exhortation to the Colossian church, focusing on how prayer, wisdom, and speech are integral to a Christian's life and witness. The conversation emphasizes that prayer is not merely an action but a defining characteristic of the Christian life, reflecting the believer's intimacy with God and reliance on His grace. The hosts examine Paul's request for prayers that his proclamation of the gospel might be clear and effective, noting that clarity is essential in ensuring the message of Christ is understood fully by its hearers. They also discuss the relationship between wise conduct, gracious speech, and the ability to answer others with the truth of the gospel. The importance of integrating faith into everyday interactions is highlighted, particularly when engaging with non-believers in ways that reflect Christ's love and wisdom. The episode also delves into how Christians can faithfully live out their faith in a world of challenges, particularly on platforms like social media, where speech often lacks grace and wisdom. Jesse and Tony remind listeners of the high calling to let their words always be seasoned with salt, ensuring that every interaction serves as an opportunity to glorify God and share the gospel. Key Points: Persistent Prayer as a Lifeline: Christians are called to devote themselves to prayer, not just as an occasional act but as a continuous lifestyle that reflects intimacy with God. Clarity in Gospel Proclamation: Paul's request for prayer highlights the importance of presenting the gospel clearly and cogently, ensuring its full understanding by hearers. Gracious Speech and Wise Conduct: Walking in wisdom and letting speech be gracious and seasoned with salt are essential for effective evangelism and maintaining a Christian witness. Faith in Everyday Interactions: Integrating faith into daily life involves speaking and acting in ways that reflect Christ's love and wisdom, especially in challenging environments like social media. Questions for Reflection: How does your prayer life reflect your relationship with God, and in what ways can it become more consistent and intentional? In what areas of your life can you work to make your speech more gracious and seasoned with salt? How can you integrate faith into your daily interactions with non-believers in a way that reflects Christ's love and wisdom? Are there specific people or ministries you can commit to praying for, as Paul asks the Colossians to pray for him?

Snippet from the Show If you believe that God wants you to be happy then how does that change what law is? Well it goes from being the arbitrary, tyrannical, imposition of an authority over me, right? And the scariest thing is not the tyrant, the scariest thing is its arbitrariness.

Sharing the gospel is central to the Great Commission. But doing so on a day-to-day basis is more complicated than we often want to admit. It's definitely more complex than just memorizing the Romans Road or learning a three-step approach for door-to-door witnessing. So in this episode, we want to ask two different questions about sharing the gospel: first, we want to ask why don't we do it, and second, how should we change the way we think about sharing the gospel?Listen to the audio version here: https://theconqueringtruth.com/2025/04/what-stops-christians-from-sharing-the-gospel-ep-213-audio/Timecodes00:00:00 Failure to Evangelize00:08:36 False Fears00:11:33 Belief in Hell00:14:53 Disobedience00:19:59 Gifting vs Practice00:26:48 Different Venues00:35:36 Hospitality00:40:04 Ready to Give an Answer00:49:28 Listening00:58:17 Answer a Fool01:21:59 Using God's WordProduction of Reformation Baptist Church of Youngsville, NCPermanent Hosts - Dan Horn, Charles Churchill and Joshua HornTechnical Director - Timothy KaiserTheme Music - Gabriel Hudelson

Speaking of going door to door to share the Gospel typically strikes fear in the hearts of Catholics. It is just not what we typically do. But Austin Habash, of the organization Sent Evangelization, offers insight into unique methodology that helps Catholics reclaim the evangelistic zeal with which much of the world came to know the Good News of Jesus.

Pastor Danny delves further into the topic of sharing the Gospel, focusing on how we can do so more naturally, easily, and often.

The Bible in Matthew 7:6 exhorts us to not cast our pearls (our words) to pigs (those who don't want to hear them). What does that look like? When is time to move on and stop sharing the truth with someone? Does that mean our children too? In this episode, Tina and Britt are unpacking what it means to speak the truth and who we should be sharing it with according to scripture.

[Original airdate: 4/11/24] Mary talks with John Hopper about making evangelism a way of life. John has discussed questions about God and life with Muslim clerics in Uzbekistan, Buddhist monks in Canada, slum-dwellers in Guatemala and tennis professionals at Wimbledon. Now, he serves as Houston Area Director for Search Ministries, a nationwide organization focused on creating opportunities for stimulating, sensitive and respectful conversations for those wrestling with life's big questions. Prior to joining Search, John served for 16 years as a pastor at BridgePoint Bible Church in Houston.  So many Christians want to share Jesus with others but don't know where to start. In Giving Jesus Away: Finding Joy in Sharing the Gospel, John provides readers with clear principles and ideas on building friendships with unbelievers, starting natural and meaningful conversations that lead to Jesus, and sharing the gospel clearly. In addition, readers are coached on how to tackle their own fears as well as address the barriers that keep unbelievers from faith. He doesn't just encourage you to jump in the water, he teaches you how to swim!  

One of RMCC's elders, Alan Garcia, teaches on the story of the Ethiopian Eunuch and picks out what we can learn for our own evangelism to those who are "sexually different" from us whether that be in their identity or their views.

For many Christians today, sharing the faith proves to be a challenge. In a divided world with deep convictions on all sides of the political and cultural spectrum, it can be hard to speak up and tell the truth. And the difficulty only increases when we consider sharing our faith with unbelieving family members--siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, parents, grandparents, you name it. So in this week's episode we dive right in and offer our perspective, thoughts, and experiences to help our listeners think through this crucial task.

“They took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately.” – Acts 18:26In a time when women's voices were often silenced, Priscilla stood courageously for the gospel. Alongside her husband Aquila, she didn't just support the mission—she actively taught and discipled others, including the gifted speaker Apollos. In this episode, I share her story as a powerful reminder that God calls and equips both men and women to proclaim His truth. Like Priscilla, we are called to share the gospel boldly and accurately—in our homes, churches, and everyday conversations.Please leave a comment or review for this episode to help us share this content with others!

There has been a rise in Christian "TMZ-like ministries" that focus on exposing the latest controversies surrounding ministers and ministries that have erred. It has become increasingly popular for ministries to blast rather than build Today, the news and entertainment industries thrive on controversy and outrage, often fueling division. Additionally, platforms like YouTube, X, Facebook, and TikTok amplify conflicts, as people react impulsively without deep thought. This quick-response culture contributes to the spread of misinformation, leading to outrage over things that may not even be true. How should we view this? What is the lens of the New Testament concerning this?In this episode of Keep It 100, we discuss "The Pure Gospel vs. The Petty Gospel" in a deep conversation with Apostolic Leader and Author Chazdon Strickland. He addresses the growing trend of "spill the tea" ministries and YouTubers who focus on fallen ministers, offering insight into the biblical response and the posture believers should take.Website: www.seanandchristasmith.comFacebook: @seanandchristasmithministriesInstagram: @revseansmith @mrschristasmithX: @revseansmithYouTube: @seanandchristasmithministries

Looney for a thought-provoking discussion on faith, holiness, and the call to live and share the Gospel!

When you're facing suffering, it's very natural to ask why. However, if we suspend that question and instead ask ‘God, how can I love the most at this moment?', you'll get more answers than if you were to actually get the answer to your question. Today, Mike Gormley and Dave VanVickle give tips how on how to suffer well and weather the storms of difficulties. Snippet from the Show Tips from Mike and Dave on How to Suffer Well: Remind yourself that everyone is fighting their own battle. Remembering that everyone is suffering in their own way can take your focus off yourself and shift your focus to others. Have a reason for your suffering. Offering up suffering keeps your focus strong and your faith big. Be bluntly honest with God. Bring your anger to the Lord and allow Him to change your heart. Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I complete what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church. (Colossians 1:24) And the Lord restored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends; and the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before. (Job 42:10) Quote from C.S. Lewis God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains. Quote from Fr. Jacques Philippe What really hurts is not so much suffering itself as the fear of suffering. If welcomed trustingly and peacefully, suffering makes us grow. It matures and trains us, purifies us, teaches us to love unselfishly, makes us poor in heart, humble, gentle, and compassionate toward our neighbor. Fear of suffering, on the other hand, hardens us in self-protective, defensive attitudes, and often leads us to make irrational choices with disastrous consequences. We want to hear from you!

Everyone knows that it is our Christian duty to evangelize, but not everyone recognizes that evangelization must always be done in connection with and in the context of the Church, the boat of Peter.

There are many parts to suffering that are difficult to understand and can build resentment within us.

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.
