Podcasts about sharing the gospel

Pastor Scott is joined by Spencer Bauer to discuss a simple, practical process for sharing the gospel that every Christian can do.

Do you just read the Bible or do you let God speak to you through His word? Mike Gormley and Dave Vanvickle finish up their reflections on Pope Leo XIV's general audiences and applaud the pope for his hyper focus on breaking down the Gospel.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of “Back to School” with some of the professors and staff from the Moody Bible Institute (MBI). First, we had Peter Worrall to discuss how the deconstruction of his faith brought him back to God and about the Christian Worldview. Peter is an Associate Professor of Educational Ministries at MBI. He has also authored the book, “20 Things We’d Tell Our Twentysomething Selves.” Then we had Dr. Samuel Naaman discuss how God led him into missionary work and how to share the gospel with people from other cultures. Dr. Naaman is the professor of Intercultural Studies at MBI. He is also the Vice President of Call of Hope, which reaches Muslims for Christ. He is also the President and co-founder of the South Asian Friendship Center, which aims to reach Muslims and Hindus. We also discussed the importance of reading the Word to accurately and effectively share the gospel. We turned to 2 Timothy 2:14-18, where it shows the importance of knowing the word and not adding to or taking away from it. Then we had Brian Kammerzelt join us to discuss the changing landscape of media with AI and the need for theologically informed communicators.

1 Peter 3:15

In this episode of the Reformed Brotherhood, Tony Arsenal and Jesse Schwamb take a deep dive into the power and importance of personal testimonies. Starting with their own faith journeys, they share how God's providence and grace have shaped their lives, from childhood faith to adulthood. Tony reflects on his conversion as a teenager and the profound changes that followed, while Jesse recounts the blessing of knowing Jesus from a young age and the role his parents played in nurturing his faith. Together, they explore the beauty of God's work in every stage of life, emphasizing that all testimonies, no matter how different, point to the same faithful God. The conversation highlights the transformational nature of faith and the importance of remembering and sharing how God has worked in life. Tony and Jesse encourage listeners to reflect on their own journeys and to share their stories of grace with others. They emphasize that testimonies are not the gospel itself but are powerful tools for pointing people to the gospel and encouraging others in their faith. The hosts also discuss the significance of ministering to children and cultivating childlike faith. They reflect on how simple faith can lead to profound spiritual truths and encourage parents, teachers, and those in children's ministry to continue planting seeds of the gospel. The episode serves as a reminder to remember God's faithfulness, share testimonies with others, and celebrate the unique ways God works in each of our lives. Key Points: The Power of Testimonies: Sharing personal stories of faith helps encourage others and highlights God's providence and grace in our lives. Childlike Faith: The importance of nurturing faith in children and the beauty of their simple yet profound trust in God. God's Providence: Reflecting on how God's hand guides us through life, even in ways we may not realize until we look back. Remembering and Sharing: Testimonies are not the gospel itself, but they are valuable tools for pointing others to Christ and reminding ourselves of God's faithfulness. Encouraging Faith Conversations: The hosts challenge listeners to share their testimonies with others and reflect on what God is currently doing in their lives. Questions for Reflection: How has God's providence been evident in your life when you look back on your faith journey? What role have others played in nurturing your faith, and how can you encourage others in their walk with Christ? When was the last time you shared your testimony with someone? What impact did it have? How can you cultivate a childlike faith and sense of wonder in your relationship with God? What is one way you can minister to children or younger believers to help them grow in their faith?

Are you in need of healing? Are you retreating from reality? Mike Gormley and Dave VanVickle continue their reflections on Pope Leo's general audiences while discussing the importance of facing what you're afraid of, letting go of our egos and trusting in the Lord with all your heart.

Leah and Tati discuss how to get more bold in sharing the gospel, how Jesus has transformed their lives, and being the weird Christian.

In today's message, Pastor Bill will share with you that God is the master author, weaving every detail of our lives into a greater story for His glory. Even the painful, confusing, or quiet seasons serve a divine purpose. He connects people, places, and timing in ways we can't see, all to reveal His goodness and power. What may seem like chaos to you is carefully ordered by His hand. Trust that your story, in His hands, will reflect His grace, love, and eternal purpose.

God opens doors to new opportunities according to His perfect timing, not ours. When we trust Him, we learn that delays are not denials but divine preparation. He aligns circumstances and hearts to fulfill His purpose in our lives. And as Pastor Bill will remind you, what may seem like a closed path now could be the beginning of something greater. God's timing is always right, and when He opens a door, no one can shut it. Walk in faith, and be ready.

You may not always wake up and wonder, "What is God doing today in Papua, Indonesia?" But He hasn't forgotten.

Trusting God when He doesn't reveal His plan can be difficult, but faith means believing He is good even in silence. God sees the full picture when we only see a piece. His timing and ways are perfect, even when we don't understand. And in today's message, Pastor Bill will share with you that, like a loving Father, He leads you step by step, asking you to walk by faith, not sight. Rest in His promises, knowing He is working for your good behind the scenes.

Today’s Bible Verse – 1 Thessalonians 2:8 (NIV) “Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well” Ministry isn’t just about preaching—it’s about living life together. In 1 Thessalonians 2:8, Paul models relational ministry rooted in love, authenticity, and connection. This verse reminds us that sharing the gospel means more than words; it’s about investing in people, building community, and reflecting Christ in both message and lifestyle.

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.

Join us a we continue our study of book of Acts where we are learning, in this episode, how to share the gospel in a secular environment.

After He was raised from the dead, Jesus told His disciples to go proclaim the gospel - this good news - to all creation.  That Somebody came back from the dead and now promises eternal life to all those who will follow Him is incredibly great news!  Why do His followers have so much trouble sharing it?

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.

Are we keeping the Gospel to ourselves instead of sharing it with the world? Pastor Donnie McClurkin challenges the modern church to rise up and return to its evangelistic roots. Drawing from Luke 14:16–23, he reminds us of Jesus' parable of the great banquet—a call to go out and compel everyone to come in: the broken, the forgotten, and even the elite. With passion and urgency, Pastor Donnie speaks on the vital role of public faith, the power of personal testimony, and the forgotten spirit of street evangelism. He recalls the days when the church didn't just meet inside the walls—it went outside them. We shouldn't keep salvation a secret. It's time to be bold, visible, and relentless in sharing the love of Jesus. Sermon Scripture Text: Luke 14:16-23   We stream live every Sunday at 11 am and every Wednesday at 8 pm.

Sharing the Gospel starts by choosing to live for Christ—letting your daily life reflect who He is, whether you're at the gym, work, or just hanging out. It means shifting your mindset to see people the way Jesus does—not as interruptions, but as souls deeply loved by God. And finally, it's about actually sharing Christ—because the Gospel is the real remedy, and you were never meant to keep it to yourself. Live for ChristHave the perspective of ChristShare Christ  Life Group Discussion:Can you think of someone in your life who truly lives for Christ?

2 Corinthians 5:11-17

Jehovah demands that we all get knowledge of Him so we can help teach others and train them to teach others. Where are you in this? Time is winding down. We must prepare to do our part.

Mike Gormley and Dave VanVickle share their thoughts on Pope Leo, unpack the meaning of “synodality” which the pope has mentioned various times, and address key differences and similarities between this papacy as opposed to previous ones. They also remind us that while the pope is important, we must not become hyper focused on every single detail of the papacy. Snippet from the Show “I'm super cautiously optimistic about everything with Pope Leo. Everything he's written so far, I've been so excited about, the decisions that he's made so far, I've been very happy with. I'm excited to see what's going to happen here.” We want to hear from you!

Pastor Jake compares life with God to floating down a river, peaceful when we trust His guidance, but exhausting when we fight for control. He shares stories from 2 Kings, such as Elisha's protection by angel armies and the salvation of Samaria, to remind us that God is the one who saves; we simply receive His grace. Jake encourages us to stop paddling against God's current, embrace the life Jesus offers, and, like the lepers in 2 Kings, share the good news with joy.

How can the Church be renewed from within? How do we faithfully follow our conscience while acting with prudence?

Snippet from the Show “The fact of the matter is that no matter the office, no matter the charism, holiness has always trumped everything when it comes to authority in the Church and so what I'd say is like, if you are frustrated with Church leadership, be holy.

Mike Gormley and Dave VanVickle talk about reviving the diaconate. They discuss how deacons are not just “married priests” but that they have different yet important roles. They also talk about the origin of the diaconate, how the role has evolved through the ages, and share their raw thoughts on the diaconate. Snippet from the Show “I'm grateful for the diaconate because I've always seen it as a part of the way the Church has ministered over the centuries, the way the Apostolic Church saw a need to fulfill and I think also the purpose of the Cross of Jesus Christ is to keep us in mind that our job is to be a sacrifice for other people.” We want to hear from you!
