Have you ever felt exhausted by the pressure to evangelise? Like you're failing because you haven't invited enough people to church or gotten enough "conversions for Jesus"? You're not alone—and you might be experiencing what I call "evangelism fatigue."

In this episode, I sit down with Pastor Rob Ventura, author of "Equipped to Evangelize," to strip away the clutter and rediscover what evangelism actually is according to Scripture. Rob brings refreshing clarity: evangelism isn't about numbers, events, or techniques—it's simply sharing the good news of Jesus Christ.

In this conversation, we explore:

  • What the Bible actually says evangelism is (hint: it's simpler than you think)
  • Why success in evangelism isn't about conversions, but faithfulness
  • How Reformed theology actually motivates evangelism rather than hindering it
  • The four essential components of the gospel message
  • Why we need to talk about hell (and how love demands it)
  • Practical wisdom on when to speak and when to wait
  • The power of the Holy Spirit in evangelism
  • How to overcome evangelism fatigue and guilt

About Rob Ventura: Rob Ventura is the pastor of Grace Community Baptist Church in Rhode Island and has been in full-time pastoral ministry for 18 years. He's been actively evangelizing for over 30 years, including open-air preaching in New York City. Rob is the author of several books including "Equipped to Evangelize: A biblical foundation' (Christian Focus Publications) and a commentary on Romans.

Resources mentioned:

  • "Equipped to Evangelize" by Rob Ventura (Christian Focus Publications)
  • Grace Community Baptist Church sermons (available on Sermon Audio)

If you're tired of feeling guilty about evangelism or wondering if you're doing it wrong, this conversation will encourage and equip you to share the gospel with fresh joy and biblical clarity.
