Word Outreach Podcast - Encouragement in Christianity with Rudy Vaughan

Do you enjoy being a Christian? Today, we will look at the first step towards enjoying the Christian walk.  If you are a Christian, but don't enjoy the Christian walk - it doesn't have to be this way. There is something you can do about it. In this episode I want to begin sharing with you 3 steps you can take and one habit you can build.  These things have been a big help to me and I want to share them with you.  Today, we will be looking at the first step: dedicating ourselves to God. This first step is a great place for Christians to start if they want to get on the path to enjoying the Christian walk. 

The 3rd Kind of Supporting Evidence:  the evidence that gets it's credibility from Eye Witness Testimony. This includes a look at the two theories that say the disciples only thought they saw a resurrected Christ.  Also, in today's episode: it's almost Christmas! In the last half we have 4 missionaries who talk to us about Christmas in Poland, Brazil, South Korea and Uganda.  If you happen to be finding this episode during another time of the year, I have put the resurreciton evidence in the first half of the podcast for you, so you don't have to listen to the Christmas parts if you don't want to.   I hope you enjoy today's episode. 

The 2nd kind of supporting evidence: It's the evidence that gets in the way of other explanations.  We also will be finishing up the intrview with New Tribes missionaries, Ace and Betty Draper.  At the end of the episode we begin thinking about our own mission efforts and talk about 'going back to the mission field'. 

The 1st kind of supporting evidence: It's the evidence that gets it's facts from historical documents.   In Today's episode we will be thinking about helping others to take the teachings of Christ seriously. One way we can do this is to bring up the topic of the resurrection.     Then, we learn about the important character quality of compassion as we listen to a missionary interview with Ace and Betty Draper, from New Tribes Mission.     This is part one of 3 Kinds Of Evidence for the Resurrection.  I want to help you to be able to have a conversation with others about the resurrection of Jesus Christ.  

If we have an opportunity to talk with someone about God, one of the best things that we can do for them is make things simple. Today, we're going to look at 3 of the most important things that they need to know about God. Then, from Japan, we will listen to missionary Mark Wolter talk about what ministry is like, there.  Before this episode is over, you'll hear a simple way to explain to a friend the 3 most important truths about coming to God - in a way that will help them to remember what you said, even after your conversation is over. It's even illustrated in a skit so that you get a clear idea of how to do it.  if you are interested in strengthening your converstation about Christianity, then this can be helpful to you.

Sharing our faith with others can be enjoyable -if we are prepared.  Today, we will look at some ways to best prepare for personal evangelism. If you have wondered where to start in getting ready to tell others about Christ, then this will be a helpful podcast episode. You can become confident in telling others about Christ! After we look at preparing, we'll listen to Mark Wolter talk about missionary work in Japan. Then, learn about the important conection that Jesus makes between evangelism and food. Get started in evangelism, get more comfortable and learn why it can be very satisfying to share your faith with others.
