Join Jeff Callow as he shares powerful insights from Acts 17 about Paul's approach to reaching the pagan culture of Athens. Drawing from over 20 years of ministry experience in South Thailand among folk Buddhists, Jeff reveals why "speaking the wrong language" can shut down gospel conversations before they begin. Discover how Paul found bridges through the "unknown God" altar, used local poets' quotes to connect with his audience, and challenged worldviews without being confrontational. This sermon explores practical strategies for cross-cultural evangelism, contextualisation, and effective gospel communication - whether you're reaching secular Australians, Buddhist communities, or any culture that doesn't share a Christian worldview. Learn why understanding your audience is crucial for successful evangelism and how God's love ultimately transforms lives more than clever arguments.
