How to Start Authentic God Conversations — guest: Doug Pollock
Simply preaching and sharing your own story, no matter how powerful, is often not enough to make someone a believer of Christ. Living in the strength and truth of your faith gives you a platform to share your story with others, but how you do so is of equal importance to your message.
Through his ministry, which has included experience as a chaplain and Director of Evangelism at Athletes in Action, Doug Pollock has learned a lot about how to have meaningful God conversations with people around the world. Doug’s own discussions with authentic men around him were pivotal moments that inspired him to do the same, through his own self-awareness and the Holy Spirit's guidance. He knows that, to be heard, you must also be willing to listen, and this has helped him develop an ease in starting a dialogue with non-believers.
Men have the responsibility to converse about their faith, but building trust and safety is key to successful ministry. Tune in to hear how to open a God space to engage in a significant way!
Highlights include the obligation to share your faith, Doug's “fence post” story, lessons learned through his evangelism, having gospel conversations with others, signs a person wants to learn more, making people feel safe and developing trust, a game-changing God conversation, and using social media to start meaningful conversations.
