In this episode, host Tina Waldrom explores how pastors and church leaders can effectively equip believers for evangelism. Sharing the gospel isn’t just for pastors—it’s a calling for every believer. However, many Christians hesitate because they don’t feel confident articulating their faith. Tina discusses how teaching frameworks can help simplify the gospel message, making it easier to share. Prayer is another key element in effective evangelism, and Tina encourages churches to build a culture of prayer specifically focused on outreach.
Beyond traditional methods, Tina highlights the role of social media as a powerful evangelism tool in today’s digital world. She urges churches to integrate evangelism into all aspects of ministry, rather than treating it as a one-time event. By providing practical resources and celebrating small wins—like a single conversation about Jesus or someone taking a step closer to faith—churches can inspire more believers to actively share the gospel. This episode is packed with insights to help pastors and church leaders create a church culture where evangelism is second nature, equipping believers with the tools and confidence to share Jesus in their everyday lives.
In this podcast episode, you will discover that:
Pastors play a crucial role in equipping believers for effective evangelism.
Practical tools like the Romans Road can help articulate the gospel clearly.
Confidence in evangelism grows through role-playing, practice, and preparation.
Prayer and social media are powerful tools for reaching people with the gospel.
Celebrating small wins and integrating evangelism into church life encourages ongoing outreach.

Discussion Questions
Who are the five people God is placing on your heart this year?
Reflect on your current relationships—family, friends, coworkers, or neighbours—who don't yet know Jesus. Write their names down and commit to praying for them regularly.
Scripture Reference: Colossians 4:2-3 - "Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message."
How can you build genuine connections with these five people?
Consider ways to intentionally connect with each person at least once a month—whether through a text, coffee, or a walk. How can you show up and listen more than you speak?
Scripture Reference: 1 Thessalonians 2:8 - "Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well."
In what ways can you serve your five with kindness and love?
Think about small acts of service that demonstrate God's love in action—helping with errands, offering a thoughtful gift, or simply being there in times of need. How can you reflect Christ’s heart through your actions?
Scripture Reference: Galatians 5:13 - "Serve one another humbly in love."
What part of your story can you share naturally to point others to Jesus?
Identify moments in your life where your faith has made a difference. How can you share these experiences authentically and briefly without feeling pressured to have a dramatic testimony?
Scripture Reference: 1 Peter 3:15 - "Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect."
How can you invite your five to explore faith in a way that feels natural and comfortable for them?
Are there creative ways to introduce spiritual conversations—perhaps through a book, podcast, or a casual gathering? How can you create a safe space for them to explore?
Scripture Reference: Matthew 5:16 - "Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."
How can you be attentive to opportunities God provides for deeper conversations?
Are you recognising moments when people open up about personal struggles or questions? How can you be sensitive to the Holy Spirit’s leading in these moments?
Scripture Reference: Ephesians 5:15-16 - "Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil."
How will you reflect, follow up, and adjust your approach as the year progresses?
Consider how your five are responding to your efforts. Are they becoming more open or still hesitant? How can you remain patient and adjust your approach with grace?
Scripture Reference: 2 Timothy 4:2 - "Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction."

This summer in Australia, we are showcasing the top 5 episodes listened to in 2024. This is #5.
In this episode, Doctor Tina Waldrom, Director of Evangelism in Australia shares her personal experience of discovering God's leading in an Uber. She talks about her mindset of always being prepared to partner with God to reach out and how she seeks opportunities to share Jesus. She recounts a conversation with an Uber driver who had a friend in the hospital, and despite his initial lack of response to her mention of prayer, she continues to look for ways to connect with him.
She shares how a person who looked like Jesus walking past the car became the opener for a discussion about Christianity. She concludes by encouraging listeners to have conversations that connect and to be prepared to offer resources for exploring faith. Tina provides examples of how to look for opportunities and what it looks like to hear God’s promptings and to follow those.
