Sound Words Podcast How to Be Disciplined in Evangelism | John Carey
In this episode of Biblical Christian Disciplines, we explore the vital role of discipline in evangelism. Our guest, John Carey, Deacon of the Evangelism Ministry at Indian Hills Community Church, shares insights on how consistent gospel outreach transforms lives—both for those sharing their faith and those hearing it.
We discuss:
✅ What biblical evangelism really is (and how it differs from just sharing our story)
✅ Practical guidance from Scripture on how to share the gospel effectively
✅ Common obstacles that hinder Christians from evangelizing—and how to overcome them
✅ The crucial role of prayer and dependence on the Holy Spirit in evangelism
✅ How the church can equip and support believers in fulfilling the Great Commission
If you want to grow in gospel boldness and discipline, this episode is for you!
