    Encounter: A Book for Non-Christians Searching for Meaning, Purpose & Faith | Ian Reilly

    Who am I? Why am I here? Does my life really matter? And what happens when the answers we've relied on no longer seem enough? Some of the best opportunities for evangelism begin not with having all the answers, but with being willing to explore the questions people are already asking. In this episode of The Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom speaks with author, entrepreneur and speaker Ian Reilly about his book Encounter - a gripping true story written primarily for non - Christians that explores identity, purpose, meaning and faith through Ian's extraordinary experiences living in Samoa. From surviving a devastating cyclone to confronting cultural differences, hardship and the feeling that his best efforts were achieving nothing, Ian discovered himself wrestling with some of life's biggest questions. He shares why honest stories can sometimes reach people in ways traditional Christian books cannot, and how Encounter is already helping Christians begin natural conversations about Jesus with non-Christian friends and family. This episode will encourage you to think differently about evangelism - not simply asking, “What should I tell someone about Jesus?” but also, “What story could help them start asking questions?” IN THIS EPISODE Ian Reilly's Samoa experience and its impact on faith The role of storytelling in spiritual conversations Big questions of identity, purpose, and meaning Challenges of living in a different culture How hardship shapes understanding of justice and evil Using personal stories to introduce Jesus The importance of story in biblical teaching Practical ways to share faith through books   EPISODE CHAPTERS 00:00 - Introduction 02:14 - The cyclone and its aftermath 05:12 - The impact of the Samoa experience on faith 10:07 - Big questions faced during hardship 12:09 - Cultural perspectives on discipline and justice 14:14 - The role of story in sharing faith 16:09 - How the book opens conversations about Jesus   WATCH THE EPISODE   Video Episode - Watch now Am I Significant? - Watch the short video     MEET IAN REILLY Ian Reilly is an Australian author, artist, innovator and entrepreneur whose life has taken him from remote Pacific villages to international boardrooms.

    Daniel Nash & Charles Finney: Who Is Praying for Your Evangelism?

    Who knows you're trying to share Jesus with someone? Who is praying for you before that conversation happens? And when an opportunity comes, who is praying that you'll have the courage to take it? When we think about evangelism, we often focus on the person having the conversation, sharing their testimony or explaining the gospel. But what about the people praying behind the scenes? In this episode of The Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom looks at the story of revivalist Charles Finney and intercessor Daniel Nash to explore an often-overlooked part of sharing Jesus: having people intentionally praying for your evangelism. Drawing on Paul's requests for prayer in Colossians and Ephesians, Tina explores what it looks like to pray specifically for open doors, courage, clear words and hearts that are ready to hear about Jesus. You'll also be challenged to find your own “Daniel Nash”, ask someone to pray for your evangelism and choose three people you can intentionally pray for over the next 30 days. Because evangelism isn't a solo effort—we pray as we share Jesus, trusting God to work through both the conversations people see and the prayers they don't.

    Natchi Lazarus: Can AI Help Us Share Jesus or Evangelise, Without Replacing the Human?

    Where are people going with their biggest questions about life? Google? A friend? A pastor? Or are they now asking AI? And when someone asks, “Who is Jesus?”, what answer will they find? AI is rapidly changing how people search for answers, communicate and explore some of life's biggest questions. For Christians, that raises an important question: could AI become a useful tool for evangelism without replacing the human relationships, authenticity and work of the Holy Spirit that sit at its heart? In this episode of The Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom speaks with author, speaker and digital transformation expert Natchi Lazarus about what it means to share Jesus in a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence. From people asking AI spiritual questions to churches creating content that can help shape the answers people discover online, Natchi explores both the opportunities and the challenges ahead. He explains why Christians don't need to choose between rejecting AI and blindly embracing it. Meaningful Christian content matters more than ever. He also emphasised “spirit-led intelligence” or remaining led by the Holy Spirit no matter how sophisticated technology becomes.  IN THIS EPISODE The impact of AI on evangelism and church outreach Understanding the difference between AI and human spirit The importance of spirit-led intelligence in technology use How churches can adapt websites and content for AI The potential and risks of AI answering spiritual questions   EPISODE CHAPTERS 00:00 - Introduction 01:15 - Natchi Lazarus's journey with AI and the church 03:21 - What makes AI fundamentally different from human spirit 05:07 - Can AI do what only the human spirit can do 07:06 - Human plus AI: A new collaborative approach 09:46 - Church resistance and embracing new technology 11:54 - Adapting church websites for AI and digital engagement 17:45 - Spirit-led intelligence and living in an AI age 22:15 - AI's engagement with spiritual questions and the church's role   WATCH THE EPISODE   Full Video Episode - Watch Now AI is the New Way of Living and Functioning - Watch the short video MEET NATCHI LAZARUS Natchi Lazarus is a digital transformation expert who helps nonprofits, NGOs and faith-based organisations use social media, AI and digital strategies to expand their reach and increase their impact.

    Mike Stevens: Step In to the Mission of God - Stories of Ordinary People Living on Mission on Mission

    Could God already be working in someone’s life long before you ever talk to them about Jesus? Here's some real life stories of God at work. Evangelism can sometimes feel like the pressure is entirely on us. We think we need to create the opportunity, find the perfect words or somehow convince someone to become interested in faith. But what if our starting point was simply recognising that God is already at work? In this episode of The Win-Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom welcomes back Mike Stevens, author of Step Into the Mission of God, to explore how everyday Christians can notice what God is doing and have the courage to join Him. Mike shares the real life stories. From a young woman whose encounter with a dragonfly sparked questions about a Creator, to a university student who sensed the Holy Spirit prompting her to invite friends to read the Bible, Mike shows how natural evangelism can become when we learn to pray, listen and respond. Rather than making sharing Jesus another task to squeeze into an already busy life, this conversation will help you develop simple rhythms that create space for God, genuine relationships and opportunities to share your faith.   IN THIS EPISODE The core message of 'Step Into the Mission of God' Stories of faith and transformation from church members The importance of prayer and Holy Spirit guidance The role of rhythms and practices in spiritual life Encouragement for everyday evangelism and outreach EPISODE CHAPTERS 00:00 - Introduction 02:32 - Mike's Journey and the Book's Impact 06:02 - The Dragonfly Story: Recognizing God's Work 08:17 - Changing Demographics and Openness to Faith 11:44 - The Holy Spirit's Role in Daily Life 14:28 - Stories of Faith in Action: Young Adults and Outreach 20:14 - Living Out Faith in Ordinary Moments 22:58 - Online and Community Care as Evangelism 24:38 - Closing Remarks and Resources   WATCH THE EPISODE   Dragonfly Leads Atheist to Church - Watch the short video   MEET MIKE STEVENS Mike Stevens is a  Lead Pastor at Clovercrest Baptist Church in Adelaide, Australia.

    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. Rather than rushing in with Christian answers, Nalini shares a practical approach: build real friendships, ask good questions, listen carefully and pay attention to what the Holy Spirit might already be doing. 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
