Are there only specific Christians who are gifted with sharing the gospel? Or is it a calling for every Jesus follower? Have you ever shared the gospel and it go horribly wrong? Where hasn't Andrew been on a mission trip?
In this episode, the LR Trio welcome fall into the ears of every listener and dive in the scriptures to uncover the truth about the subject of sharing the gospel.
So grab your early 2000s gospel tracts and let's talk about EVANGELISM!
The LR boyz responds to this listener's question:
"In Matthew 28:19 it says we are commanded to preach the gospel to everyone, but in Ephesians 4:11 it says some are given the gift of evangelism in the church. Then in 2 Timothy 4:5 it says to do the work of an evangelist. So my question is this, are only some given the gift of evangelism even though all are called to preach the gospel?? Or do all of us as believers have that gift but just need to be obedient and step out in faith and do it?"

NOTW. And we’re not talking about the shirt you’re wearing at the latest Third Day concert. We mean things literally not of this world… Aliens, UFOS & UAPS. But what does the Bible have to say on the subject? The LR boys take a closer look at how the Christian can respond to all that is happening in our skies right now and why it’s important to the believer (in Christ, not just X-Files). From things seen and unseen, to our government’s involvement in congressional hearings you’ll want to follow along in this special 2 part episode. So buckle up because where we’re going you don’t need roads

This episode is about the Christian and mental health.
I know... sounds heavy, right? But it's actually pretty funny...but also serious. We love you guys, and we pray for you all the time. Thanks for reading if you've gotten this far.
Your favorite podcast trio responds to this listener's question:
"What should our ideal mental health look like as Christians? Are we allowed to suffer? I know we shouldn’t be anxious, but it’s hard not to be and then when I am anxious it’s like self condemnation for being anxious lol. Hopefully that makes sense. To add clarification, when I’m sad do I need to force myself to be joyful because I’m a Christian, do I need to stop self-doubt because I need to be confident in Christ? Is that attainable?!"
