Catholic here - attending a mainstream conservative Catholic Church - I just walked up to a priest and asked to start a Bible study and I had a Bible study on the premises in 2 weeks. You can also just walk up and ask to be a Catechist. You could walk up and offer to have a scheduled talk where you expand on a topic. You can do youth ministry. You can start a prayer group. The Catholic Church needs tons of volunteers. There’s a constant influx of people into the Church and it requires a lot of educational and spiritual and practical assistance.

I think it’s important to recognize that not everyone has the same callings. Some people really can spread the Gospel through discussion. The Apostles spent a lot of time reasoning with Jews in synagogues. But not everyone is good at making rational arguments, some people do more good by simply demonstrating what a Christian life looks like to non-believers. Some non-believers also aren’t ever going to be convinced by rational discussion, some people are more emotional than rational. I think knowing your own skills and matching your audience to your skill set is very important for evangelism.

I’ve been married for much shorter than you, but all I can say is to fulfill the calling you are called to as a husband. “Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her,” Ephesians 5:25 ESV It’s not an easy task, to love as perfectly as Christ loved is an impossible task, but when your wife looks at you she should be able to see Jesus. Whether she knows it or not. Living sacrificially to the utmost degree. If the change is evident, there will inherently be curiosity. And not being able to talk about something as important as your faith shows an area of weakness between y’all (even if it might be on her part) when it comes to communication that needs to be fixed. But again, most importantly. Love your wife as Christ loves the church and gave himself up for her.

I think it's important to establish that you're still the same person you were before. With heavily secular communities there's this fear that religion "brainwashes" people. You're still you. With that made clear, I'm assuming you both consider yourselves fairly rational people if you were both critical of religion, in which case explaining how coming to faith was the rational choice for you would further help. This is important to defuse any potential lingering distrust or animosity. If she feels like you're not the same person you were, or that you made a major life choice like this on an emotional whim rather than through rational thought, then of course she'd be distrustful of any conversation on the topic. Ultimately, her faith and potential conversion is in God's hands, not yours. Pray as usual and God will put it on your heart when the time is right.

I live in the South (technically, it's a border area, but culturally, we are a blend of southern and mid-western). There is a phrase here that might be a good strategy for evangelism: "Proclaim the gospel every day. When necessary, use words." Essentially, allow the Holy Spirit to direct your life. Be a good Christian: be kind and truthful. Let others see Christ in your actions and in how you treat others.

When the church was in power, we had the luxury to say "I follow Paul" and "I follow Apollos". But these are pagan times, and we must follow Christ and none else.

Through the church I grew up in (a non-denominational one) I have had a decent amount of success in evangelism. Through our church's outreach programs, specifically our children's basketball league, many have started coming to church. The formula we used for that was to start by having a goal of outreach and a creative mind on how to get people in the doors for the outreach, followed by building the relationships. If someone walks into a church building for the first time and feels welcomed by a bunch of friendly people, they're more compelled to return. It has had quite a large success for the congregation with over half of the congregation being brought through the church doors by the basketball program and kept in the doors through relationships. I recently moved away from my parent's town and have started attending a new church affiliated with the Church of the Nazarene where I'm trying to get some outreach going to grow this congregation.

I kind of disagree that strong institutional churches are what would lead to a religious revival. I could cite examples of countries like Poland, and many European countries where they do have a strong, centralized church institution with lots of community influence, but that isn't really helping them stem the tide of secularism. I think an argument on why America is having more resilience to secularization compared to Europe is because America has a huge diversity of denominations competing in a survival of the fittest way. Right now we're living in a time where mainstream institutions are more distrusted than ever. The education system, the government, the media, and yes, the big churches, are generally seen with distrust and being out of touch, and this kind of skepticism of mainstream institutions spills over to everything. It's kind of why populist movements are growing everywhere, why dominant political parties are getting hammered in Europe and American politics is becoming increasingly populist. And why the fastest growing churches are normally the new churches with few roots, since they go against the idea that they're establishment and out of touch. Pentecostalism and non-denominationalism being the best examples. I know this isn't probably what you want, but I'm just the messenger. I think we're headed for an era of decentralization, not just in church, but in pretty much everything, just because the Western population has grown extremely skeptical of any centralized concentration of power.

I'm Non-denominational/Baptist/E-Free essentially, and, I learned a ton from your channel, especially about some of the terminology, I didn't know what apologetics meant before hearing it on this. Enjoy the videos a lot, I even appreciate the critique of my side, we definitely have a very individual view, I think it works well for me, but I definitely have a better view of the other denominations now - might actually try one in the future. I think if anything it's a very unifying channel, because you always focus on Jesus/the main message of the Bible.

Btw. You are wrong. There are so much Cathecists in the Catholic Church. You cannot preach in the pulpit unless you are a deacon or a priest, but the Catholic Church has the most schools built around the entire world. All those schools are in need of high quality Christian teachers. I myself, when I was in university, under the Ateneo Cathecetical Instruction League, would go to the boundoks and preach the Bible to children in poor areas of the Philippines. The Church just has more regulation when it comes to lay preaching, but that is a good thing in order to prevent heresies.

God's grace has been the greatest thing that has happened to me in my life, and while I do agree with a lot of things in this video, I'm strongly against the idea that God chooses to convert people. God's love grace and salvation is like a gift. He offers it to the world, and although many people accept it, many people also decline his offer. It's for this reason that I don't think God converts people, I just think he empowers believers to spread the gospel and to convert others. I actually converted because of this channel, but I don't think God chose me to be saved, I think I'm saved because he offered me to be saved and I accepted. Great video btw keep up the good work and god bless.

Redeemed Zoomer (in reference to your recent discord post), I'm glad that you've finally come to the conclusion that Protestantism is indefensible. I pray you'll dig a little deeper and realize that it didn't "become a joke", but rather that it was a joke from the very beginning. Christ established a church, which is a divine-human institution. It is the Kingdom of God on earth, and it has lived and breathed His word for over two thousand years. That church is none other than the Eastern Orthodox church. I pray that Christ our God will guide you and your wife to the fullness of truth. This is addressed directly to RZ, I'm not here to debate in the comments.

Actually you kinda can "teach a Bible study" in the Catholic Church. The second Vatican council encouraged the laity to be involved in their parishes. Me and my friend each had a group of around 10 teens to prepare for confirmation, but of course a priest supervised us and took care of the more important stuff. My other friends sing psalms and read the readings in Mass. You don't have to be protestant to do something in your local church 😎

I haven't heard "New Presbyterian" New Calvinism is an EVANGELICAL movement of mostly Baptists and some Presbyterians to REDEFINE Calvinism as basically just predestination. Major figures include R.C. Sproul, John MacArthur, Paul Washer, John Piper Neo-orthodoxy is a mostly MAINLINE academic movement to try and still hold to historic Christian beliefs while still accepting modern science and scholarship There's something else called NEO-Calvinism, which was an early 1900s movement of people like Kuyper and Bavinck that focused on cultural transformation

I know your comment is more directed at RZ but I think growing the body of Christ is more important than bringing people from one non-liberal church to another non-liberal church. When it comes to liberal churches, they don’t preach the gospel so you’d treat them just as you would a non-believer.

I agree with RZ that reaching the institutions is very important and even crucial for establishing the Gospel in a certain region, but his attack on street preaching and preaching to your friends and family is a hard miss. Why? Well I could bore you with giving examples of how countless people believed the Gospel due to street preachers and their friends teaching them the Gospel without them asking. I could also tell you of the successes of the great street preachers such as the Wesley brothers and other methodists or I could also mention how the anabaptists gained a huge following even though they were severed from the institutions but I won't bore you with these facts, rather I'll just give a few examples of evangelising from the Bible, since we are Bible believers, aren't we? During the earthly ministry of our Lord, was He trying to become a pharisee or some sort of a goverment official in order to reach the masses? No, He was a simple woodworker who preached from town centers, boats, synagogues and the temple. According to RZ logic, He was doing it improperly. Were the Apostles any different? No, they employed the same tactics. Just remember the first mass conversions after the coming down of the Holy Spirit.(Acts 2) The Jews who converted in Jerusalem didn't do it because a pharisee or a Roman philosopher told them so, they converted because Peter boldly preached to them the Gospel truth! We cannot abandon the clear biblical principle of evangelising because some other way seems more successful. To sum it up, we must boldly truthfully and wisely proclaim the Gospel to ALL people using ALL sort of means. We must not put ourselves in a box like RZ tells us to, but wisely and while being led by the Spirit proclaim the Gospel using all techniques, whether they be direct preaching, reaching the institutions, social media, inviting people to church or something else.
