Is evangelism really on life support, or is it evolving into something new? In this episode of POD Strangely Warmed, we kick off a new series inspired by Carey Nieuwhof’s 5 Disruptive Church Trends That Will Rule 2025. Rev. Daniel Hawkins is joined by church planters Rev. Joshua Manning and Rev. Billy Echols-Richter to dive deep into the challenges and opportunities of evangelism in today’s world.
Together, they explore why traditional evangelism methods may be struggling, how invitation and listening play a critical role in faith communities, and what it means to foster true belonging in an ever-changing church landscape. From rethinking conversion to embracing adaptability, this conversation challenges us to move beyond outdated models and into a future shaped by relationships, clarity, and the Holy Spirit.
Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that just might change the way you see evangelism.
