How to Share the Gospel, featuring: Bill Howard Nov 02, 2021

Show notes

Bill Howard joins Michael to discuss: How to Share the Gospel.

Evangelism is a concept that challenges and intimidates many, but should it?

Bill answers these questions and many more in this conversation with Michael about:

Turning conversations toward spiritual topics
Obstacles keeping people from embracing God
What keeps Christians from talking to others about God
What to do when people don't want to hear about God
The power of sharing the gospel to invigorate other believers

Get Your Nose in The Book: Recognizing God in the Ordinary, with Pastor Erwin Lutzer Oct 05, 2021

Show notes

Pastor Lutzer shares his own story of experiencing God's providence in the ordinary throughout his life. Through his incredible testimony of God's faithfulness, you'll be encouraged to see God in the everyday moments of life, to seek Him, and to step confidently into the ways God intends to use you as His hands and feet right where you are.

In Pastor Lutzer's words: "When God sends revival, He does not bypass the church. He works through the church in brokenness and repentance to bring revival...It's going to happen through God's people."

In this episode, Michael and Pastor Lutzer discuss:

How Scripture changes lives
God's providence through a parking space
Exposition: handling God's Word in context.
The Social Justice "Gospel" (and other things that aren't the gospel)
Revival, Church, and generosity in America

"Exposition is handling God's Word in context. You want to understand what was being said to that generation and to build a bridge to this generation."
