Every Christian says they believe in sharing the gospel, but a lot of us get quiet the second we’re outside church. That silence isn’t just “personality” or “being private” it’s often fear, shame, or the feeling that someone else will do it. Pastor Lee Day sits down with Ken Napier to talk plainly about what Jesus actually commands and what it looks like on a normal Tuesday.
We ground the conversation in the Great Commission from Matthew 28:19 and Mark 16:15, then move straight into what fuels real evangelism: a changed life and a clear view of grace. Ken shares how he once treated faith like an insurance policy, then later hit a point where he had to choose surrender or walk away. That turning point pushed him into the Word of God and birthed a desire to make Jesus known at the golf course, in the store, and wherever God opens a door. We also talk about being unashamed of the gospel (Romans 1:16), why preparation matters, and how prayer and Scripture make witnessing feel less forced and more natural.
Not every conversation goes smoothly, so we get practical about rejection, heated moments, and how to respond with “gentleness and respect” from 1 Peter 3:15. Ken explains why he’ll often step back and simply ask, “Do you mind if I pray for your family?” We close with the reminder that we are ambassadors for Christ (2 Corinthians 5:20) and that the same Holy Spirit power from Acts 1:8 still strengthens believers today.
