This week we are starting a series about teens, young adults on evangelism. While there are big challenges in these years, there are also great opportunities. And the greatest is to plant seed and reach your friends and classmates with the gospel. Over the next few episodes, we will talk with teens, college students and others who work with students about it all. In this episode, I'm just going to...

In this episode, I discussed how to use a Bible study on the book of John to go deeper with a friend, family member, coworker, neighbor or classmate who is showing interest in Christianity. If you would like a copy of the study, please see me at church I would love to help you take the next step with someone in your life.

Based on last week's idea that we are Gospel Detectives sharing clues to God's plans with the world, this week Brian Krug, Craig Whiteford and I go deeper. We each share ways that personally the "clues" God has put in His world are tools for us to reach the lost with the gospel. Based on Paul's discussion of bringing to light God's mysterious plans in Ephesians 3. Message...

This is a devotional episode. On 7/21 I preached about embracing the Riches of Christ and sharing clues to the Mystery of God's plans with others. This episode goes a little deeper into those ideas from Ephesians 3. Enjoy. - Chris Repp Message: ⁠Church Witness / Ephesians 3:10 / July 21, 2024

This week, we are sharing the testimony Ron and Mark gave after returning from a missions trip to North Carolina. It's great to hear how short-term missions can create unity in a team and a platform to share the gospel with others.

This is week 2 of Brian and I talking with Craig Whiteford. He has been at Living Hope since the beginning and served the church in many ways. He also has a heart to connect Jesus with his passion for endurance racing (marathons and triathlons), and a burden to see the scourge of child trafficking come to an end! (Warning to parents: some of the topics discussed in this episode are sensitive) Refe...

In this episode, I got to speak with my dear sister Karen Speir. What a fun story she told. As a result of aquiring a stack of Our Daily Bread devotionals, she was able to bless 5 people in her daily life with a gift and a word about the love of Jesus. A great example of taking a steppingstones step, on purpose, to share Jesus! Resource: Discipleship and Training Karen mentions in this Episode

Far too often, when i have a chance to speak the gospel, or take a steppingstone step toward it, I say nothing (or think of what to say 30 seconds too late!) It's really frustrating! Here's some suggestions of how to "be prepared to give an answer" just in time to a friend, family member, neighbor, co-worker or classmate.

This week we talk with David Pinckney. He works for Acts 29 as a Regional Director for the North Atlantic and South East. He is also dad to 4 boys and a girl. One of those boys is our very own Isaac Pinckney. I've heard David speak a time or two, and knew he has a heart for the church to love and reach non-Christians with the gospel. We had a great discussion about it, and he told a bunch of g...

This week I encourage us to use the Stepping Stones Study Guide  (pdf) as a summer devotional. I'm also reminded of how important, and fun, it can be to encourage each other to be evangelistic. We all have people in our lives we are seeking to reach with the gospel. As you use the steppingstones study guide this summer, also reach out to someone else at Living Hope, share the names of someone...

The Bible talks about serving others, especially the poor and needy, as an expression of the heart of God. This week, I share some scriptures, some thoughts, and excitement for our North Carolina Missions team. Be praying for them as they go on mission, and that even at home, we would see our friends and family, neighbors and coworkers as a mission field also. _______ North Carolina Mission Trip -...

This week I just wanted to share a passage of scripture that inspires me to love God and the gospel. Psalm 51. If you have a bible passage that you treasure, and inspires you to share your faith, I'd love to hear it. Email me at chris@findlivinghope.com

This week on the podcast we go deeper into how evangelism and the Gospel of Jesus, flows out of the stories of the Old Testament. Dan Steele, Brian Krug and I all share suggestions and encouragement to find Jesus all over the books of the Old Testament, even though Jesus wasn't born yet! It might just be one of the familiar stories of the Old Testaments that is the connection point you can use...

This is Steele on evangelism, part 2! This week we hear from Dan about how his Dad, his work at River Valley Ranch and his regular life have all developed his heart for evangelism. He shares some great stories!

This week I'm excited to have Dan and Hope Steele on the podcast. They are relatively new at LHC, 2 years attending. But they have jumped in and gotten connected quickly. They both have a BIG heart to share the gospel, and this week Hope shares the story of how God has developed her, as an introvert, to love the lost and share Jesus with specific people in her life.

This week we wanted to re-share the 30 second testimonies from Easter. Based on the question, How has Christ changed your life?, they are a great way to boil down your testimony and have it ready to share with a FFNCC when the Lord opens a door. (We even have special guests who discuss what it was like preparing their testimonies for the Easter service.) Finally, we would love for you to prepare y...
