Discussion Questions
1. Why do you think conversations about AI can naturally lead to conversations about God, identity, and purpose? Stephen suggests that AI is raising questions people have not had to wrestle with before. How can Christians use these questions as bridges into gospel conversations?Read: Acts 17:22-23, Colossians 4:5-62. What does it mean to be made in the image of God, and why is that truth more important than ever in an AI-driven world? Discuss the difference between human beings and artificial intelligence. How does Genesis help us understand human value and personhood?Read: Genesis 1:26-27, Genesis 2:73. How does our culture tend to build identity from the bottom up, and how does the gospel offer a different foundation? Stephen describes a culture where people find value in what they achieve, create, or contribute. How does the gospel provide a more secure identity?Read: Genesis 1:27-28, Ephesians 2:10, Galatians 2:204. What fears or concerns about AI are people around you expressing, and how might these concerns open doors for evangelism? Think about conversations you've heard regarding employment, purpose, creativity, or the future. How can these concerns create opportunities to share the hope found in Christ?Read: 1 Peter 3:15, Romans 15:13
5. How can understanding that humans are both physical and spiritual beings help us explain the gospel more clearly? Stephen describes AI as "refined dust" but highlights that humans have been given life through God's Spirit. Why is this distinction important when discussing humanity with non-Christians?Read: Genesis 2:7, Ecclesiastes 3:116. Are there current cultural conversations you tend to avoid that could actually become opportunities for evangelism? AI is becoming a common topic in workplaces, universities, cafés, and homes. What practical steps can you take to engage these conversations and gently point people towards Jesus?Read: Matthew 5:14-16, Colossians 4:5-67. How does God's sovereignty give you confidence when facing an uncertain future shaped by technology? Stephen reminds us that technological change is not new, and God remains sovereign over every generation. How does this truth help you remain hopeful and focused on sharing Jesus?Read: Daniel 2:20-22, Romans 8:28, Revelation 21:1-5

Why Christians Stop Sharing Their Faith (And How To Be Focused Each Week)

In this episode of the Win Win Evangelism podcast, Tina Waldrom explores the subtle reasons why Christians stop sharing their faith and why maintaining an outward-focused mindset requires more than a one off burst of motivation. Why do Christians stop sharing their faith? Most believers don't walk away from evangelism because they've stopped loving Jesus. More often, life simply gets busy. Work pressures, family responsibilities, fear of awkward conversations, discouragement from past experiences, and endless distractions can slowly push evangelism from a daily priority to an occasional thought. 
Drawing from Scripture, research, and practical experience, Tina unpacks the importance of ongoing encouragement in helping believers stay focused on God's mission. You'll discover why relational evangelism is often simpler than we think, how daily reminders can keep mission visible, and practical ways to recognise opportunities God places before you each day. If you've ever felt your passion for evangelism fading, this episode will encourage you to refocus, stay faithful, and keep sharing the hope of Jesus with confidence and gentleness.In this podcast episode, you will discover that:
Loss of focus in evangelism due to distraction and fear
The importance of ongoing encouragement and daily reminders
Relational evangelism and authentic conversations
The role of technology in supporting mission focus
Cultural pressures in Australia affecting evangelism
And more…

Discussion Questions1. What are the biggest distractions that pull your focus away from sharing your faith? Tina suggests that most Christians do not stop sharing Jesus because they stop loving Him, but because they become distracted by everyday life. What currently competes for your attention and makes evangelism less visible in your daily routine?Read: Galatians 6:9; Ephesians 5:15-162. How have fear, awkwardness, or past experiences affected your willingness to talk about Jesus? Think about a time when a spiritual conversation felt uncomfortable or did not go as you hoped.

How can you become more intentional about recognising the opportunities God places before you each day? Tina emphasises that opportunities can be missed when we are not paying attention.

How can your small group, church, or Christian friendships better "spur one another on" towards mission?Read: Hebrews 10:24-25; 1 Thessalonians 5:116. How does relational evangelism differ from the way many people traditionally think about evangelism? The episode explains that evangelism is often less about having all the answers and more about listening, caring, asking questions, and sharing hope naturally. How does this perspective change the way you approach conversations about faith?Read: 1 Peter 3:15; John 4:1-307. What is one practical step you can take this week to stay outward-focused? Tina encourages believers to pray each morning for one opportunity and look for one person God may already be drawing to Himself. What specific action will you take this week?Read: Matthew 9:37-38; Colossians 4:2-6
