I do, I have long conversations. Sometimes for hours and they're interested. But can never get them to church

Hopefully I am posting this in the right place. Forgive me if I'm not. I've been thinking about my attempts of evangelism over the years and while I've never once been successful at leading someone to saving faith, I've noticed a similar theme. Every time I have convinced someone to come to...

Hello all, Recently, a former coworker of mine broke up with his girlfriend of 6 years that he was living with. He's an unbeliever, but he's been receptive/interested in the gospel as long as I've known him. He has not accepted Christ yet as he said he doesn't want to give up his vices, he's...

There's a church in my area that I attended for a couple of years early in my faith. I left not over sin issues or arguments, but needing to make things right and needing accountability. I know several people who attend there still, and just recently, the founding pastor at the church, the lead...

Well said. Thank you!

Hello everyone, My wife and I are part of a church, and we're very active in serving. Last year we occasionally served in the nursery on Sundays, and I was often scheduled to clean the church on a Saturday before church. On top of that, I shoveled all the paths and was backup to lockup the...

I completely agree, and have said the same thing. My church did not start as a campus ministry but they were originally meeting on the same college campus, just renting out a lecture hall.

Hello all! Sorry for the long post, you can keep scrolling if it's too much. I'm writing today to ask for advice on how I should go about planting a church. Just to give some backstory, I have been feeling the call to ministry for several years now, and only recently felt confident in it...
