Show notes

“How do you love somebody you don’t like?”

Patrick Houston aka Project Pat rejoins Pastor Spencer on this podcast to talk about how to accept and love people as they are, the same way God treats us. Pat says, “God is love. So when you’re walking in love, you’re walking like God.” Love is more of an action than a feeling. Pat explains when his life was filled in anger and darkness and how he found joy and strength after his encounter with the love of God. Pat and Pastor Spencer provide some practical ways we can adopt that love in our personal lives, health, and relationships.

Episode 21: Can We Just Talk? Conversations about Evangelism Apr 22, 2021

Show notes

How do we reach our friends who are far from God? Special guest Dr. Alexis Gwen-Miller, Director of Alpha NDCC, walks us through how she engages people who have questions about spirituality. There is no correct way to learn more about God, and Dr. Gwen-Miller explains that the key to understanding your faith starts with asking questions. It doesn’t take a lot of biblical knowledge to be an evangelist. Has God ever looked out for you? As a family member, friend, and/or coworker, you can begin to share these experiences with the people you care about and watch where the conversations take you.
