Ray, Mark, and Oscar answer listener questions during a live Q&A, with Oscar appreciating the unfiltered nature of the discussion. When asked about the hardest questions to answer, Mark admits it's when he doesn’t know the answer and pretends he does. Ray recalls struggling with a man’s question about why God let his wife suffer before she died. On increasing laborers in evangelism, they stress the importance of pastors sharing their own experiences and making evangelism part of the church’s cultural DNA. Changing a church’s culture starts by finding a few passionate people and letting their enthusiasm spread.

Ray finds some evangelism encounters easier than others, often using the fear of death to gauge receptiveness. Oscar relates better to former atheists but struggles with cultural Christians. When considering missionary work abroad, they advise starting by evangelizing at home before seeking an overseas calling. The guys discuss pro-life vs. abolitionist views, with Mark arguing that being pro-life includes abolitionist principles—protecting life at all stages. The conversation shifts to Christian YouTube channels, with Oscar warning that notoriety can be dangerous. He urges potential creators to examine their hearts and build a foundation in ministry first. On where we go after death, Oscar believes we immediately enter heaven, though views on the specifics vary.

Turning to the topic of evangelism burnout, Ray advises pacing yourself and staying spiritually filled, while Oscar highlights Psalm 51, where David prays for the restoration of joy. To start witnessing conversations, Ray asks people about life after death, which he finds universally engaging. The discussion moves to ethical consumerism, with Mark sharing his struggle with boycotting certain companies while Oscar warns against complete detachment from culture. A Christian woman waiting for a godly man is encouraged to pursue God wholeheartedly rather than idolizing marriage. 

Mark's favorite verse is John 17:3, while Ray favors Proverbs 19:23, and Oscar holds onto Romans 8:39. Their favorite quotes range from Charles Spurgeon to J.R. Packer’s thoughts on adoption as the greatest gift of the gospel. Should Christians should read the Quran? The guys caution against it unless one is called to reach Muslims, emphasizing the importance of knowing the Bible deeply. For witnessing to Mormons, the guys advise focusing on the gospel and defining terms clearly since Mormonism often uses Christian language with different meanings.

Dr. Jeff Myers, President of Summit Ministries, joins Ray, Mark, and Oscar to discuss discipling the next generation. Oscar shares that Gen Z is the least religious generation but not due to atheism; instead, they wrestle with faith, loneliness, and purpose. They are more inclined to listen to Jordan Peterson than Richard Dawkins, revealing a hunger for something greater than what the world offers. Unfortunately, many churches have responded poorly by focusing on superficial changes instead of addressing deeper needs, leading some young people to seek transcendent experiences in liturgical churches. True discipleship involves welcoming young people into genuine community and guiding them toward a sense of purpose and connection.

Jeff emphasized the importance of creating spaces where hard questions can be asked without judgment. Ministries like Summit and Living Waters equip Christians to address these questions with grace, focusing on connecting people to Christ as the ultimate truth. Christianity uniquely bridges the gap between humanity and God, offering answers to life’s deepest questions.

Discipleship today should mirror biblical discipleship, where Jesus lived and worked alongside His followers. It’s about inviting others into daily life, asking and answering questions, and modeling faith authentically. In a time when many pastors fall publicly, seeing faith lived out in a genuine way is transformative. Jeff encourages older Christians to step up as mentors, reminding us that discipleship doesn’t require advanced theological knowledge—just a willingness to guide others in their faith journey. For those seeking mentors, Jeff advises identifying areas of need and praying for God to connect you with people who can help. This approach builds a network of mentors and fosters intergenerational relationships within the church. Oscar highlights the importance of vulnerability, sharing how one of his mentors asked for forgiveness, profoundly shaping his faith. Discipleship involves displaying humility and continually pointing others to Christ.

Jeff shared about Summit Ministries’ impact, particularly through its two-week programs where students learn from top Christian experts across various fields. These experiences equip students to discern truth, identify and turn from bad ideas, and recognize that everything in life falls under the lordship of Jesus Christ. By fostering this understanding, Summit sets young people on a path toward spiritual freedom and a deeper connection with God.

Dr. Jeff Myers highlights the need for authentic discipleship that meets Gen Z’s deep spiritual hunger by fostering real community, encouraging open discussions, and guiding young people toward Christ as the ultimate truth. Unlike past generations, Gen Z is not drawn to atheism but instead struggles with faith, loneliness, and purpose, seeking something more meaningful than what the world offers. 

Unfortunately, many churches have responded with superficial changes rather than true discipleship, causing some young people to turn to liturgical traditions for a sense of transcendence. Myers emphasizes that discipleship should reflect Jesus’ model—living life alongside others, asking and answering questions, and displaying faith authentically, especially in an era when many Christian leaders fail publicly. 

He encourages mentorship, advising individuals to identify areas of need and seek guidance from those more experienced in faith and life. Vulnerability is key in discipleship, as demonstrated when Oscar’s mentor profoundly impacted him by asking for forgiveness, showing the power of humility. 

Summit Ministries plays a role in equipping young believers through curriculum and immersive programs, connecting students with top Christian experts who help them develop a Christ-centered worldview. By teaching young people to discern truth, reject harmful ideologies, and embrace faith as an all-encompassing reality, Summit empowers them to live boldly for Christ and impact the world.

E.Z. shares a powerful testimony of transformation through God’s grace. Born in Lebanon, his life nearly ended before it began, as his mother attempted to abort him but was stopped by her doctor. In 1980, Emeal moved to America, where he struggled to adjust. Unable to speak much English, he faced challenges in school, frequently fought, and stole, leading to a troubled childhood. Raised in a culturally Catholic home, he sought to reform himself after his first Holy Communion at eight years old but remained a practical atheist, living a life far from God.

In high school, Emeal succumbed to peer pressure. Elected freshman class president, he was expelled for bad behavior and later joined one of the most notorious gangs in the United States for acceptance and belonging. His life spiraled further out of control, leading to expulsion from another school and self-harm. Despite knowing something was missing, he clung to sin, believing he lacked the power to change.

One night, while still entrenched in his old life, Emeal reluctantly attended an evangelistic event. There, the worship and message touched his heart. Hearing the gospel of grace for the first time, he realized salvation was a free gift. Overwhelmed, he surrendered to Christ, and his life was instantly transformed. Burdens lifted, Emeal became a new man, and his joy was undeniable. He confessed his sins to his family and began living for Christ, leaving behind his rap career, gang ties, and sinful habits.

Emeal’s new found faith brought dramatic change. Once an angry and rebellious teenager, he became gracious and forgiving. He returned to school, excelled academically, and led Bible studies, using every opportunity to glorify God. His zeal for evangelism grew, leading him to connect with Ray Comfort, whose ministry inspired him. This connection sparked a new chapter in Emeal’s life, eventually leading to his leadership at Living Waters ministry. God also blessed Emeal with a wife. After praying for a partner to comfort him following the passing of his mother, he met Rachel, Ray Comfort’s daughter, and knew she was the one. They fell in love, married, and have since celebrated 27 years together with children and grandchildren.

Today, Emeal reflects on God’s incredible work in his life. From a rebellious youth to a leader in ministry, his story is a testimony to God’s grace and power. Emeal sees it as an honor to serve as an ambassador for Christ, using his story to inspire others and glorify God.

Wesley Huff, the Central Canada Director for Apologetics Canada, joins Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar on the podcast to discuss his experience on the Joe Rogan Podcast and the power of God’s word. Born in Pakistan, Wes spent time on the mission field when he was a child. At 12, he was diagnosed with a condition that doctors claimed would leave him unable to walk, yet God worked and he miraculously regained mobility a month later.

Wes shares how his debate with Billy Carson gained unexpected traction. Having responded to Billy’s claims on social media, he was invited to an impromptu debate. Wes remained kind and clear in presenting the truth, while Billy seemed unprepared. After the debate, Billy reacted poorly, bringing more attention to the conversation. On Christmas Eve, Wes received a direct message from Joe Rogan, inviting him on to his podcast. A week later, he found himself sitting across from Rogan in a natural, free-flowing conversation. Joe seemed genuinely interested in what Wes had to say, and Wes noted that Rogan appeared to be more receptive to Christianity than in the past. He asked Joe what he thought about Jesus, and Joe acknowledged Jesus as a real person and saw value in Christianity.

The discussion shifts to the validity of scripture. Wes explains internal and external evidence, such as name qualifiers in the Bible that align with historical records and the accuracy of geography in the texts. He recommends Scribes and Scripture for those wanting to explore the reliability of the Bible. Oscar points out a shift from outright atheism to a view that sees Christianity as useful, exemplified by Jordan Peterson. While Peterson articulates biblical principles well, he stops short of accepting Jesus as Savior. Wes believes God may be working through Peterson and hopes he will eventually embrace the full truth of the gospel.

Regarding apologetics, Wes emphasizes the importance of faith over intellectual arguments. While evidence is valuable, salvation comes through faith in Christ, not winning debates. Even those who witnessed Jesus’ miracles—like the Pharisees and Roman soldiers—remained unconvinced. Evangelism requires boldness to proclaim Christ, even at the risk of looking foolish. Finally, Wes discusses the canon of scripture, explaining how early Christians discerned which books were inspired. The gospels and Paul’s letters were widely accepted early on, while debates centered on other writings. Over centuries, the early church ensured the canon contained only texts tied to Jesus or His apostles, preserving the integrity of God’s word.

This Tuesday, don’t miss a special highlight episode as we gear up for an unforgettable conversation dropping this Thursday.

Wesley Huff, Central Canada Director for Apologetics Canada, shares with the guys how his debate with Billy Carson unexpectedly led to an invitation from Joe Rogan to appear on his podcast. During their conversation, Rogan seemed more open to Christianity than in the past, acknowledging Jesus as a historical figure and recognizing Christianity’s value. 

Wes and the guys discuss the reliability of scripture, citing historical accuracy and external evidence, and recommend Scribes and Scripture for further exploration. They note a cultural shift from atheism to seeing Christianity as useful, as seen in figures like Jordan Peterson, and express hope that God is working through them. 

Emphasizing that salvation comes through faith rather than intellectual arguments, Wes explains that even those who witnessed Jesus’ miracles did not always believe. He also touches on the formation of the biblical canon, explaining how early Christians carefully discerned which writings were truly inspired to preserve the integrity of God’s word.

Secret sin is an oxymoron—there is no such thing. Every sin, even those we think are hidden, is exposed before God. Today, Ray, Mark, and Oscar talk about lust, particularly pornography, and how it plagues many, with statistics revealing that 7 out of 10 men and 2 out of 10 women are caught in this so-called secret sin. Society often normalizes pornography, but it is a trap that ensnares and destroys. Many wrongly think that once they get married, their sin won’t plague them anymore, but sin doesn’t disappear with marriage; it must be addressed and defeated now, or it will continue to control you.

Lust offers fleeting pleasure but leaves lasting damage. It distorts intimacy, leading individuals to compare their spouses to unrealistic fantasies. God’s laws do not withhold joy but invite us into a fuller, joy-filled life. As science confirms, pornography sets people up for relational failure. When you indulge in sin, it’s like removing the batteries from a smoke detector—complacency blinds you to the danger. Sin desires to have you, but God’s grace is always available. Mark emphasizes the importance of addressing sexual sin openly and honestly with children and their significant others. Shying away from these conversations does more harm than good. Similarly, Ray, in his evangelism, confronts this issue by calling people to repentance. Lust is not something to struggle with but to reject outright.

Scripture shows the seriousness of sin. Lust is equated with adultery in the heart, and sin will take you further than you want to go. It is a lion crouching at your door, ready to devour. David’s sin with Bathsheba began with a look, proving that flirting with sin leads to destruction. You must hide God’s Word in your heart and instill the fear of the Lord. When secret sin comes to light, the Bible provides the way to healing. Confess your sins to a trusted pastor, brother, or sister in Christ. True repentance comes from a love for God that expels false loves. Emotional maturity requires humility to confess and turn to Christ. Repentance isn’t about avoiding consequences but aligning with God’s love and experiencing His transforming power.

If you’re struggling with lust or pornography, take action. Quote scripture out loud, flee from temptation, and seek accountability. God grants repentance and offers freedom through confession. Though uncomfortable, confession brings healing and restoration. God sees you as precious and desires your repentance and renewal. Turn from sin, embrace His love, and live in the freedom He provides.

This Tuesday, don’t miss a special highlight episode as we gear up for an unforgettable conversation dropping this Thursday.

Secret sin is never truly hidden, as all sin is exposed before God. Lust offers fleeting pleasure but causes lasting damage, distorting intimacy and leading individuals to compare their relationships to unrealistic fantasies. The guys discuss how many believe marriage will resolve these struggles, but sin doesn’t disappear—it must be confronted and defeated before it takes a deeper root. 

Scripture equates lust with adultery in the heart and warns that sin seeks to ensnare and destroy. True freedom comes through repentance, which requires turning away from sin and embracing God’s love. Healing begins with confession to a trusted pastor, brother, or sister in Christ, allowing accountability and support in the battle against sin. 

The guys remind believers that God’s laws are not meant to withhold joy but to guide us into a fuller, joy-filled life free from sin’s grip. By hiding God’s Word in our hearts, fleeing temptation, and seeking His grace, we can overcome the destructive power of lust. Though uncomfortable, confession brings healing, restoration, and the freedom that comes from living in alignment with God’s will.
