    The Secret to Church Growth After You Plant with Tina Waldrom

    What keeps a church growing after the excitement of planting it begins to fade? More programs? Better events? A bigger team? Or could the secret be something much simpler? The direction of a church is shaped by what consistently gets its attention. And when evangelism stays visible, believers are far more likely to notice the people around them who don’t yet know Jesus. In this episode of The Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom shares her workshop from Exponential on the secret to growth after planting a church. Her challenge to leaders is simple: if you want people to notice those who don't yet know Jesus, you have to intentionally help them look. But creating a culture of evangelism isn't about putting more pressure on already busy Christians or launching another program. Tina explores practical principles that can help make sharing Jesus feel like normal Christianity again: from giving people simple, achievable actions and telling more stories of everyday faith conversations, to changing what churches measure and celebrating every small step someone takes towards Jesus. Whether you're leading a new church, an established congregation or simply want to become more intentional about sharing your own faith, this episode will challenge you to consider what you're focusing on and where that focus is taking you. IN THIS EPISODE The importance of focus after church planting How attention drives behavior and church growth Using the reticular activating system to notice opportunities Setting specific, measurable goals for evangelism The Hawthorne effect and keeping evangelism visible Celebrating small wins and progress in faith journey The role of stories and sermons in shaping culture The importance of measuring evangelism efforts Encouraging a culture of outreach and discipleship   EPISODE CHAPTERS 00:00 – Introduction 02:03 – The Focus That Led to Church Planting Success 03:53 – Why Most Churches Have a Focus Problem 11:59 – Measuring Progress and Celebrating Small Wins 14:12 – The Importance of Storytelling and Sermons 15:54 – The Hawthorne Effect and Keeping Evangelism Visible 23:53 – The Progress Principle and the Journey of Faith 26:07 – Practical Steps for Church Leaders 27:57 – Takeaways   WATCH THE EPISODE Full Video on YouTube: Watch Now   Watch this short video: “How Do I Get My People More Engaged in Evangelism?”   MEET TINA WALDROM Tina Waldrom is the founder of Evangelism in Australia and host of The Win Win Evangelism Podcast.

    Prayer, Pioneering & Evangelism: How God Opens Doors for the Gospel

    What if growing in evangelism started with three simple prayers: God, open a door. Open their heart. Open my mouth. Prayer, pioneering & evangelism belong together. Sometimes sharing Jesus begins not with having the perfect strategy, but with recognising where God is already moving and having the courage to join Him. In this episode of The Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom talks with Jessie Skelly from PAIS Australia about what it means to pioneer new opportunities for the gospel, particularly among the next generation. From praying outside school gates to discovering “people of peace” and equipping young Christians to share Jesus with their friends, Jessie shares powerful stories of what can happen when ordinary believers stop trying to make everything happen themselves and start looking for where God is already at work. This conversation is also a challenge to get out of the boat and have a go. You'll hear why today's pioneering evangelism needs prayer, creativity and fresh approaches, how fear can stop us before a conversation even begins, and why we shouldn't decide in advance who will or won't respond to Jesus. If you want your evangelism to become more prayerful, courageous and dependent on the Holy Spirit, this episode will encourage you to pray for an open door and then be ready to walk through it. IN THIS EPISODE Unity across the body of Christ and working together The concept of pioneering and starting new initiatives The importance of discernment and prayer in evangelism Stories of faith and breakthrough in schools The role of prayer in empowering evangelism and discipleship The importance of community and mentorship in youth evangelism Practical steps for opening doors and engaging with schools The significance of seed sowing and relational evangelism The impact of faith stories and testimonies in outreach Encouragement for believers to step out in faith   EPISODE CHAPTERS 00:29 - Jesse Scully and the PAIS Movement 02:15 - What Pioneering Means in Evangelism 07:19 - Looking for the Answer to Prayer in Real-life Conversations and Opportunities 11:18 - Why Prayer is Essential I You Want to Pioneer Anything for God 17:36 - Moving From Prayer into Actual Gospel Conversations 19:25 - Praying for Boldness and Speaking with Supernatural Confidence 21:46 - What Church Leaders and Youth Pastors Can Do If They Need Training for School Outreach 23:31 - Closing   WATCH THE EPISODE Watch part of the full video episode: Watch Now   Watch the short video: “Jessie Skelly: Pioneering is That New, Almost Apostolic Work”   MEET JESSIE SKELLY Jessie Skelly is the National Director of Pais Australia, a role he has held for four years.

    Who Gets to Define Me? Talking About Identity With Non-Christians

    Who gets to define who you are? Your job? Your relationships? Your past? Your achievements? Or perhaps the things other people have said about you? Identity has become one of the biggest conversations in our culture and it can also become a powerful doorway for evangelism. In this episode of The Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom sits down with Christian speaker, author and communicator Nalini Tranquim to explore why so many people struggle with the question, "Who am I?" and how Christians can enter those conversations with genuine curiosity, compassion and wisdom.

IN THIS EPISODE Why identity can be a powerful starting point for spiritual conversations Nalini's journey from trauma to healing How to start conversations about identity with non-Christians Questions that uncover what someone really believes about themselves How to listen for what the Holy Spirit may already be doing How your own story can naturally introduce Jesus Why genuine friendship matters in evangelism How to trust God with the outcome of someone's spiritual journey EPISODE CHAPTERS 00:00 - Introduction and Guest Introduction 03:34 - Nalini's Journey from Trauma to Healing 07:17 - Why Identity Is Crucial for Fulfilment 09:20 - Common Ways People Define Their Identity 11:53 - Responding to Non-Christians Who Question Identity 16:32 - Introducing God Into Conversations About Identity 20:25 - Starting Conversations About Identity With Non-Believers 25:29 - Why God Should Define Our Identity 27:44 - Closing Remarks and Resources   WATCH THE EPISODE Watch the full video episode: YouTube link   Watch the short video: "I Felt the Spirit of God Wanted to Take Me On a Journey of Discovering Who I Was" Short video link   MEET NALINI TRANQUIM Nalini Tranquim is a Christian speaker, author and communicator who shares practical wisdom around identity, faith, healing and discovering who God has created us to be.

    When I Took a Homeless Woman to Church

    What if the interruption you didn't plan for was actually the moment God had planned all along? In this episode, Tina Waldrom thought she knew exactly how her Sunday morning would unfold: grab a coffee, head across the road to church and enjoy the service. Then a homeless woman asked her to buy a caramel Frappuccino. One simple request led to breakfast, an unexpected invitation to church and four words Tina couldn't forget: “I've given up on hope.” What happened next became a powerful lesson about evangelism, compassion and noticing the person God has placed right in front of you. In this deeply personal episode of the Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina explores what it means to become interruptible and allow the love of Jesus to move beyond words into practical action. From making someone feel welcome at church to providing a safe shoulder to sleep on, this story challenges the idea that evangelism always needs to begin with the perfect gospel conversation. Sometimes it begins with a coffee, a meal, learning someone's name or simply making room. You may not be able to change the whole world, but you can love the person God puts in your path and that ordinary act of kindness might become one of the holiest moments of your week. In this podcast episode, you will discover about: The importance of compassion in faith practice How small acts can have a profound impact The role of the church in serving the marginalized Jesus' example of reaching out to the outcast The significance of hope in Christian life The power of unexpected moments in ministry The connection between kindness and spiritual growth And more…   WATCH THIS SHORT VIDEO: LOVE IS NEVER JUST SOMETHING WE SAY, IT BECOMES SOMETHING WE DO  *SUPPORT THIS PODCAST – BUY ME A COFFEE – MORE INFORMATION HERE.   *OUR ONLINE LEARNING & COURSES Share Jesus Membership On Mission with God @Home (free sample) On Mission with God @Home (Full Course Details) 3 Day Evangelism Challenge    *OTHER PODCAST EPISODES LINKED TO THIS The Homeless Man Who Changed my Night with Tina Waldrom How Evangelism and Social Justice Work Together with Tina Waldrom Sharing the Gospel in a Secular Australia (with Tina Waldrom) The Stats for Effective Evangelism with Mark McCrindle Why are So Many Australians Turning Away From Christianity and What Can We Do About It?

Are you interruptible when God puts someone in your path? How do you normally respond when someone interrupts your plans? Could some of the interruptions in your life actually be invitations from God? Read: Luke 18:35-43; Mark 5:21-34 2. Do people who are far from God feel safe around you? One striking observation from the episode is that people who were rejected or overlooked by society often felt comfortable approaching Jesus. Tina asks an important question: Do people still feel that way around us as Christians? Read: Luke 15:1-2; Matthew 9:10-13 3. Are you listening for the story underneath someone's words? When people talk to you, are you listening for opportunities to understand what's really happening in their lives? How could listening more carefully create natural opportunities for evangelism? Read: Romans 15:13; 1 Peter 3:15 4. Does your evangelism demonstrate the gospel as well as explain it?  Is your understanding of evangelism mainly about what you say? How could practical compassion make your conversations about Jesus more credible? Read: 1 John 3:16-18; James 2:14-17 5. Would someone who feels ashamed feel welcome in your church?  If someone experiencing homelessness, addiction, poverty or another difficult circumstance walked into your church this Sunday, how would they experience your community? What could you personally do to help them feel seen, valued and welcomed? Read: Romans 15:7; James 2:1-4 6. Are you waiting to do everything instead of doing something? Have you ever avoided helping because the problem seemed too large? How could changing your thinking from “I can't do everything” to “I can do something” transform your approach to evangelism? Read: Luke 10:30–37; Galatians 6:9-10 7. Could one small act of kindness help someone rediscover hope? Who has God already placed in your life who might need hope? What is one practical act of kindness you could offer them this week? Read: Matthew 25:35-40; Proverbs 19:17; Matthew 5:16

    The Homeless Man Who Changed my Night with Tina Waldrom

    What if one of the greatest opportunities for evangelism came disguised as an interruption? In this deeply personal episode, Tina Waldrom shares the unforgettable story of an ordinary holiday evening that became an extraordinary encounter with God. What began as a quiet dinner and a spectacular fireworks display quickly turned into a life-changing lesson about noticing the people Jesus notices. Through one simple act of kindness towards a homeless man, Tina discovered that the Holy Spirit often speaks through gentle promptings, inviting us to step beyond our comfort and reflect the compassion of Christ. This episode is a powerful reminder that evangelism isn't always about preaching a sermon or having all the right words. Often, it begins with seeing the person in front of us, responding with love, and trusting God with the outcome. As Tina reflects on Scripture and her own experience, you'll be encouraged to slow down, listen to God's voice, and embrace the everyday opportunities He gives you to demonstrate His love. If you long to grow in compassionate, authentic evangelism, this conversation will inspire you to see people and yourself through the eyes of Jesus. In this podcast episode, you will discover about: The Holy Spirit's gentle prompting to notice others Jesus' example of noticing and helping marginalized people The significance of calling people by their names Acts of kindness as expressions of faith The connection between worship and social justice The impact of small acts on spiritual growth Scriptural insights on caring for the least of these The importance of dignity in service And more… *SUPPORT THIS PODCAST – BUY ME A COFFEE – MORE INFORMATION HERE.   *OUR ONLINE LEARNING & COURSES Share Jesus Membership On Mission with God @Home (free sample) On Mission with God @Home (Full Course Details) 3 Day Evangelism Challenge    *OTHER PODCAST EPISODES LINKED TO THIS How Evangelism and Social Justice Work Together with Tina Waldrom Sharing the Gospel in a Secular Australia (with Tina Waldrom) The Stats for Effective Evangelism with Mark McCrindle Why are So Many Australians Turning Away From Christianity and What Can We Do About It?

Tina describes how she couldn't stop noticing the homeless man, realising it wasn't guilt but the gentle prompting of the Holy Spirit. Evangelism often begins when we're willing to notice what God is drawing our attention to. Read: John 10:27; Galatians 5:25 2. Who are the people that Jesus wants you to notice? Who in your everyday life may be feeling overlooked or invisible? How could God be inviting you to notice them this week? Read: Matthew 9:36; Luke 19:1-10 3. What small act of obedience is God asking you to take? Do you ever hesitate because you feel you can't do enough? What small act of kindness could you take this week that points someone towards God's love? Read: James 2:14-17; Zechariah 4:10 4. Do you see people's problems, or do you see people? Everything changed when Tina stopped seeing "a homeless man" and instead saw a person created in the image of God. Every individual has value because they bear God's image. How easy is it to label people rather than truly see them? How might seeing people as God sees them change your approach to evangelism? Read: Genesis 1:27; Isaiah 43:1 5. Are you serving others without expecting anything in return? Why can it be tempting to expect something back after we've helped someone? How can you demonstrate Christ's love through quiet acts of generosity? Read: Matthew 6:1-4; Philippians 2:3-8 6. Who is really transformed when we show compassion? While the homeless man received one meal, Tina realised that God had transformed her own heart. Evangelism doesn't just impact the people we serve. It changes us too.  Can you think of a time when serving someone changed your own heart? What does this teach you about God's purpose in acts of compassion? Read: Matthew 25:35-40; Proverbs 19:17 7. What "fireworks" might be distracting you from people? The beautiful evening could easily have distracted Tina from noticing the person sitting nearby. We too can become so occupied with our own plans that we miss the people God places in front of us. What distractions make it difficult for you to notice people in need? How can you become more intentional about living a lifestyle of everyday evangelism? Read: 1 John 3:17-18; Hebrews 13:2

It's about knowing that the Christian message is true, beautiful and good. What currently gives you confidence in sharing Jesus? What undermines that confidence? Read: Romans 1:16; 2 Timothy 1:7 2. What fears stop you from speaking about Jesus? Fear emerged as one of the biggest barriers to evangelism, whether it's fear of rejection, losing friendships, damaging your reputation, or even losing your job. Read: Matthew 28:18-20; Isaiah 41:10 3. Are you retreating from culture or engaging it with wisdom? Christians are called to engage the world around them rather than withdraw from it. How can we lovingly enter difficult conversations without compromising biblical truth? Read: Matthew 5:13-16; Colossians 4:5-6 4. How prepared are you to answer today's big questions? Whether it's AI, Islam, suffering or cultural issues, many people have genuine questions about Christianity. We don't need to know everything, but we should be growing in our understanding.

Evangelism begins with believing that the gospel really is the best news anyone could hear. Read: John 3:16–17; Romans 10:13-15 6. How can you start talking about Jesus more naturally? Confidence often grows through small, consistent steps rather than dramatic moments. What opportunities has God already placed in your everyday life? Read: Colossians 4:2-6 7.

Rob shared that his hope wasn't for everyone to become experts overnight, but for believers to leave feeling just a little more confident each day. Read: Philippians 1:6; Hebrews 10:23-25
