In this episode of the Post-Christian Podcast,Dr. Eric Bryantinterviews Aaron Pierce, the International Mission Director ofSteiger International, a global mission organization dedicated to mobilizing followers of Jesus to reach young people who would not walk into a church.Aaron shares insights on how church leaders can engage with young adults, particularly those who have deconstructed their faith. He emphasizes the importance of having a broken heart for the lost and the need for new strategies to connect with a post-Christian culture. The discussion also covers his bookNot Beyond Reach and outreach efforts at events like South by Southwest in Austin and the significance of building relationships through spiritual conversations.Aaron shares inspiring stories of transformation that highlight the power of faith and community engagement.Takeaways:Steiger International focuses on reaching young people who are disengaged from the church.A broken heart for the lost is essential for effective outreach.Cultural shifts require new strategies for evangelism.Engaging in spiritual conversations can lead to deeper discussions about faith.Risk is intrinsic to faith; stepping out is necessary for growth.* Building friendships is key to sharing the gospel.The fastest growing religious group is the religiously unaffiliated.Church leaders must adapt to a post-Christian culture.Outreach events like South by Southwest provide unique opportunities for engagementInspiring stories of transformation demonstrate the power of faith.

God's Word is clear that believing in Jesus is the only path to genuine salvation. In this program, our guest teacher Aaron Pierce – from Steiger International – continues his series, Not Beyond Reach. He'll walk through practical ways to talk about God's Word with those who don't believe the Bible is the absolute truth.Main PointsPrinciples for sharing the Gospel:Rely on the Holy Spirit, not scripts or tractsPeople need to experience the power and presence of GodIntroducing people to the person of JesusNo cross, No powerContextualizing the Gospel for your audience:Contextualization is about communicating in a language they can understand.It’s not about popularity or compromise, it’s about clarity.Avoid using Christian language that is foreign and strange to secular culture.Jesus used words and imagery that was very relevant to the audience He spoke to.Don’t use the Bible as an argumentative authority:“The Bible says,” is not a compelling or effective approach for post-Christian people.Leverage the truth, that is experientially verifiable, taught in the Bible, not the authority of the Bible itself.Communicating the Gospel effectively in the context that God has called you to:There is power in your storyTake a risk and invite a response. Give people an opportunity to say yes or no to JesusDiscipleship relationships:Doesn’t start the day someone commits to a local church, but the moment they meet a follower of Christ.It’s about doing life together, not a weekly event.Doesn’t have to happen in a classroom or a church hall, it can happen in the context and environment people come from.It’s intentional: we guide the relationship purposefully to see spiritual growth, making the most of every opportunity.Should lead to multiplication.Broadcast ResourceNot Beyond Reach Resources Message Notes Additional Resource MentionsTom Holland - "Domnion" About Chip IngramChip Ingram’s passion is helping Christians really live like Christians.

Are you concerned that today's culture will crush your kids and grandkids' faith? In this program, we begin our series, Not Beyond Reach – taught by our guest teacher Aaron Pierce. He leads a ministry called Steiger International, who's on a mission to reach young people all over the globe with the Gospel. To kick off this series, Aaron and Chip sit down to discuss why this next generation is desperate for and ready to receive - the hope only Jesus can offer.Main PointsThree key realities to engage post-Christian culture:Secular people have become suspicious of religious institutions and are far less likely to walk into a church.Secular people today do not have the same assumptions as previous generations. Secular people are open to spirituality.Four key influences on global youth culture:Entertainment Industry (Music, film, theater, sports)Internet Stars via social media platforms.Video Games (is bigger than Hollywood where the average 21 year old male has spent 10,000 hours playing video games).Pornography is a pervasive and unashamedly part of many daily routines. Sexuality is just a personal pursuit of happiness; harmless.Philosophical pillars:Secularism – Faith is private and not meant to be pushed on others.Relativism – There is no absolute moral truth.Acceptance – Tolerance is not enough, you must affirm.Four big worldview questions:Origin – Where did life come from? How did life begin?Morality – What is right and wrong and who decides?Purpose – What is the purpose of life?Destiny – What happens after we die?Predominant worldview: Secular Humanism – the religion of self. The idea is that God has been replace, man is at the center, and there’s no outside authority that can tell me how to live my life. The key to happiness is found within.What should our response be?- Nehemiah 1:4; 1 Corinthians 4:20; 1 Thessalonians 2:8Broadcast ResourceNot Beyond Reach Resources Message Notes Additional Resource MentionsNancy Pearcey - "Love Thy Body" About Chip IngramChip Ingram’s passion is helping Christians really live like Christians.

How can our assumptions and attitudes hinder us from sharing Jesus with the non-religious and younger generations? In this week's conversation on FrontStage BackStage, host Jason Daye is joined by Aaron Pierce. Aaron is the CEO and Mission Director for Steiger International. His most recent book is entitled Not Beyond Reach. Together, Aaron and Jason look at some of the tightly held assumptions that actually prevent us from pointing the non-religious to the beauty of Jesus Christ.
