Podcasts about sharing the gospel

How can I have tough conversations with my family during the holidays? Dave reminds us the importance of building trust and getting to know someone before you try to evangelize them; even your own family, can have wounds they are hiding. Listen to them, pray for them, fast for them, respond with love. We want to hear from you!

GAZA Road Lessons | His Word, His Plan, His People In today's episode, we look at Philip's unexpected call to leave a thriving ministry in Samaria for a dusty, desert road. What followed was a Spirit-ordained moment with eternal impact. Discover how listening to God, sharing boldly, and trusting His plan—even without all the details—can lead to life change for you and others. Key Takeaways: 1. Obeying without hesitation opens doors for God to move through you. 2. The Holy Spirit still speaks—our role is to slow down and listen. 3. Every believer is called to share Jesus, not just the trained or titled. 4. God's plan may lead you away from comfort and toward a single person in need. 5. Your obedience today could be the start of someone else's eternity.

In this teaching from Iowa City Church we'll begin learning together how to share the gospel in simple, everyday ways. The first step isn't complicated—it's prayer. Before we talk about Jesus with anyone, we can begin by praying for them, asking God to open doors and prepare their hearts. Prayer is something we can all do, and it's where sharing the good news really begins. To learn more, give a listen to part four of Our Church.

“But because he wished to justify himself, he said to Jesus, ‘And who is my neighbor?'” Mike and Dave break down the Parable of the Good Samaritan, explain why this story is so important and expand on the radical love Jesus calls us to.

In this episode of Women Soaring, we're diving into what it means to live with urgency when it comes to sharing the Gospel — not out of fear, but out of love. As Christian women, military spouses, and homeschool moms, our lives are filled with countless conversations — at the coffee shop, on the sidelines, in the homeschool co-op, or during deployment seasons. But how often do we see those everyday moments as opportunities to shine God's light?We often think sharing our faith needs to be loud or perfectly planned, but so much of God's work happens quietly — over a cup of coffee, through a text of encouragement, or while helping a friend in need. This episode explores how we can bring Jesus into our conversations naturally and authentically, reflecting His love through our daily walk.Join us as we talk about:☕ Turning small talk into meaningful conversations

In this powerful sermon, Guest Speaker Michael Rondon dives into John 5, exploring the story of Jesus healing a man paralyzed for 38 years at the Pool of Bethesda. Titled "Do You Want to Be Made Well?", the message challenges listeners to reflect on their own desire for spiritual and physical healing. Michael emphasizes Jesus' personal approach, meeting individuals in their brokenness, as seen in encounters with Nicodemus, the woman at the well, and the paralyzed man. He unpacks the significance of hope, perseverance, and trusting God's goodness, even when answers are "no" or "not yet." Drawing from the broader context of the Gospel of John, Michael encourages the congregation to find life in Jesus alone, live a legacy that points others to Him, and prepare for eternity. The sermon also highlights the power of God's sovereignty and the call to serve the "one" in front of us, inspiring believers to remain expectant and faithful in their walk with Christ.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

When Charlie Kirk passed away, many voices—from pastors to political leaders—spoke about his life and faith. At his memorial service, we heard from Pastor Rob McCoy, Senator Marco Rubio, and Frank Turek.

LEARN MORE at http://teach4theheart.com/358 Sometimes we feel like our work doesn't matter--we might not be getting paid much, we don't have many opportunities to share the Gospel, so what is the point? You might be surprised to hear that God's design for work is bigger than the Great Commission, and deeper than economics. Jordan Raynor joins us to share about the eternal significance of our work and how it might just change the way we walk into our classrooms each day.

Send us a textWelcome to God-sized Stories!I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Dodge—a passionate church leader, author, and missionary whose own journey to faith began as a university student right here in the Midwest. Together, we touch on his remarkable story of coming to Christ, his calling to reach students on campuses across the world, and the meaningful church planting work he's been a part of, both here in the US and in the rural villages of Zambia.We also dive deep into his brand new book, “Gospel 201,” the much-anticipated follow-up to the best-selling “Gospel 101.” Dr. Dodge shares powerful insights on why a true understanding of the Gospel begins with grasping the heart of God's story from Genesis onward. We explore Jesus' parable of the sower and the seed—how it challenges us not just to hear, but to really listen and allow God's Word to take root in our lives in a way that bears fruit. We talk about the hurdles of a self-focused culture, the distractions in our day-to-day lives, and why approaching God with humility and a trembling heart is so important if we want to truly walk in our purpose.And here's something I'm excited to share with you: Dr. Dodge is giving away a free copy of “Gospel 201” to one of our listeners!

EVERYDAY DISCIPLES S1:E9Following the way of Jesus in everything, everywhere, every day. “And Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men.” - Mark 1:17SHOW NOTESWelcome back to the Everyday Disciples podcast, where we discuss what it means to follow the way of Jesus in everything, everywhere, every day.  This month, we are talking about what it means to be good stewards or our time, our talent, and our treasures. Today, our host Andrew is joined by Co-host Ruth and our guest, K2 Nelson, as we talk about the importance of our stories.  WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO SHARE OUR FAITHLooking at the story of the man who was delivered from being possessed by a legion of demons in Mark 5:1-20. We see that this man was turned away by Jesus and given a calling to tell his friends of how much the Lord had done for him. We are called to share our faith and point to our hope in Jesus. This man knew what Jesus had done for him and had a story to share. We all have a story to share about what Jesus has done in our lives and for us.  HOW CAN WE SHARE OUR FAITHWe have all experienced something good: a meal, a book, a cup of coffee that we wanted to share with others, almost to the point where we couldn't stop. We can apply that same love to sharing something good, to how we share about Jesus, our savior and provider. See 1 Peter 3:15-16 and Matthew 28:18-20. We are simply called to share what God has done for us.  PRACTICEWRITE OUT YOUR STORY: Write out your story. Use these prompts to help you think through your story: What has the Lord done for me?How has the Lord had mercy on me? What has been your experience following Jesus, and why would you want others to know Him?How can someone follow Jesus? SHARE YOUR STORY: Take time to share your story with someone you know or someone you don't.PRAY: Pray that God would give you the opportunity to share the hope you have in Jesus with someone. Sharing your story or engaging in evangelism does not have to be scary. It can simply involve sharing a meal with others, talking about something you've seen God do recently, or pointing the conversation toward Jesus when given the opportunity. Writing out your story, or at least part of it, helps remind you of what God has done and keeps it fresh in your mind so that you can share it with those around you.  RESOURCESJimmy Scroggins: The “3 Circles” Evangelism MethodJeff Vanderstelt: "Gospel Fluency" & " Saturate"Jerram Barrs: "Learning Evangelism From Jesus"

In this sermon, Mike Whitesell reflects on how Christians, especially those in their later years, can continue to grow and make a meaningful impact for God's kingdom. Prompted by his own experience with retirement, Whitesell stresses the importance of not becoming complacent or “a grumpy old guy,” but remaining intentional and vibrant in faith. He encourages listeners to examine not just their spiritual practices but also their attitudes, dispositions, and ways of relating to others. Using both a personal story about impatience at a cell phone store and biblical examples, he highlights how our daily interactions should be marked by “sweet reasonableness” and grace as described in Philippians 4. Whitesell employs a sailing metaphor, likening the Christian life to trimming sails so we can be optimally driven by the Holy Spirit, rather than old habits or self-focus. Drawing from Galatians 2:20, he outlines four steps for spiritual refinement: dying to self, denying self-centeredness, relying on Christ, and then actively trying to live out Christlike character. Ultimately, Whitesell urges believers to let the Holy Spirit guide their responses and relationships so that their witness remains vibrant, gracious, and effective for Christ. The sermon ends with a prayer for God's ongoing work in shaping His people to reflect Jesus in all circumstances.

Why does Jesus conceal his teachings through parables rather than speaking straight forward? Mike and Dave kick off their new topic discussion on the parables and explain how the parables invite you into a mystery and teach you to slow down. Mike and Dave invite you to join them into the mystery of unpacking the parables and give tips to understand the parables better. We want to hear from you!

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.

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.

What impact did it have? How can you cultivate a childlike faith and sense of wonder in your relationship with God?

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

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. 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!

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.
