Stop Treating Evangelism Like a Performance

Evangelism isn’t a performance, a program, or a pressure tactic—and it was never meant to be.

In this episode, a men’s Bible study group walks through Evangelism (9Marks) and wrestles honestly with what it really means to share the gospel in everyday life. This is a raw, unscripted conversation about practical evangelism, church culture, altar calls, discipleship, and why most Christians feel either guilty or paralyzed when it comes to sharing their faith.
We talk about:
- Why evangelism is persuasion, not manipulation
- Why you can’t “talk someone into” following Jesus
- The danger of confusing decisions with discipleship
- Evangelism as a long game, not a microwave moment
- Living as ambassadors for Christ at work, at home, and in failure
- Why authenticity matters more than polish
- How churches can build a culture of evangelism, not just programs
- Why actions open doors—but the gospel still requires words
- This episode is for anyone who:
- Feels awkward or afraid to share their faith
- Is tired of gimmicks and performance-driven Christianity
- Wants to live out the gospel in real life, not just Sunday morning
- Believes evangelism should look like presence, humility, and truth
