Welcome to the Evangelism Is Easy Podcast, where we equip everyday believers to boldly share their faith and make disciples as a way of life—not just a ministry strategy.

In this episode, Pastor Chris sits down with Mike Gailes and Wells Brazda for an honest and convicting conversation about discipleship, faithfulness, and stewarding influence without losing sight of the one. Wells opens with a question he asks many evangelists: “Who is one person you’re discipling right now?”—a question that often exposes the tension between building a platform and tending to people’s hearts. This episode leans into the both/and: reaching the masses while remaining faithful to the individual.

Together, they challenge the idea that discipleship must be complicated or programmatic. Instead, discipleship is framed as family—organic, relational, and rooted in love. As Mike explains, the anointing isn’t found in striving or scale, but in genuine passion for people. Wells also shares personal testimony from his own journey, highlighting how discipleship shaped his life and ministry from the ground up.

The discussion closes with practical insight for evangelists and leaders whose ministries are growing, but who want discipleship to remain close, personal, and sustainable.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why platform should never replace personal discipleship
• The “Burden of the One” and how Jesus modeled it (Luke 15:3–7)
• How prayer, outreach, and discipleship fuel long-term faithfulness
• Why discipleship works best when it feels like family
• How we often overcomplicate what Jesus made simple
• Why the anointing flows from love for people, not performance
• Practical steps to keep discipleship relational as ministry grows

Action Step:
Ask the Holy Spirit, “What’s one place this week where I know God is asking me to step out?”
Give Him your yes—and let us know in the comments how it goes.

Welcome to the Evangelism Is Easy Podcast, where we equip everyday believers to boldly share their faith and make disciples in their daily lives.

In this episode, Pastor Chris Donald brings clarity and freedom to the message of the gospel—reminding believers that the gospel is truly good news, not a message of condemnation, pressure, or fear. This conversation reframes evangelism as an overflow of relationship, not religious performance, and challenges listeners to share the Jesus they have experienced, not just the Jesus they’ve learned about.

Pastor Chris unpacks why effective evangelism begins with understanding and articulating the gospel clearly.

This episode confronts the misconception that the gospel starts with condemnation and instead returns to the heart of Jesus: not to condemn the world, but to save it. Through John 3, 1 John, and Acts, Pastor Chris explains why believers are called to witness from personal encounter, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and why clarity is key when sharing the gospel.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why the gospel is genuinely good news
• How to preach people out of condemnation and into life
• What John 3:17 reveals about the heart of God
• Why we share the Jesus we’ve experienced, not a textbook version
• What it means to be a Spirit-empowered witness (Acts 1:8)
• A testimony from Brazil that highlights the power of clear gospel communication
• Why every believer must be able to articulate the gospel simply

Equipping + Practical Ways to Share the Gospel:
Pastor Chris provides simple, everyday tools to help believers confidently share their faith, including:

• Sharing your personal testimony of how Jesus changed your life
• Asking permission before sharing the gospel to create openness and trust
• Using two simple gospel questions from John 3 to guide conversations
• Keeping the message centered on Jesus, not religion or debate
• Relying on the Holy Spirit rather than perfect wording
• Inviting people into relationship, not just a moment

Action Step:
Ask the Holy Spirit, “What’s one place this week where I know God is asking me to step out?”
Give Him your yes—and let us know in the comments how it goes.

Welcome to the Evangelism Is Easy Podcast, where we equip everyday believers to boldly share their faith and make disciples in their daily lives.

In this episode, Pastor Chris Donald delivers a bold and faith-filled teaching on fear—what it really is, why it shows up when we step into obedience, and how God wants to use it as an invitation to crush hell. This message confronts the lie that fear disqualifies believers from evangelism and exposes the spiritual reality behind intimidation, hesitation, and silence.

Pastor Chris unpacks why fear isn’t merely emotional, but spiritual, pointing to Scripture to reveal that God did not give us a spirit of fear—but of power, love, and self-control.

From everyday encounters to stepping onto the grounds of a mosque in Iraq, he testifies to how the Comforter meets believers the moment they choose obedience.

This episode reframes fear not as a warning to retreat, but as a signal that heaven is moving and hell is panicking—because the more you go, the more you grow.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why fear is not just a feeling—it’s spiritual
• What 2 Timothy 1:7 reveals about the true source of fear
• Why believers often feel fear right at the moment of obedience
• How Romans 8:11 reframes confidence in evangelism
• Why fear is an invitation to crush hell, not back down
• Testimonies of stepping out—from everyday moments to a mosque in Iraq
• Why Satan is more afraid of obedient believers than they are of him

Action Step:
Ask the Holy Spirit, “What’s one place this week where I know God is asking me to step out?”
Give Him your yes—and let us know in the comments how it goes.
