Ladylike Podcast | Episode 20: Things I Wish I Knew About…Sharing My Faith

About this sermon

We're closing out our "Things I Wish I Knew" series with one of the most important topics yet — personal evangelism. Julie and Delaney talk honestly about what they wish they'd known about sharing the gospel: why it's slower and more relational than we expect, why someone's starting point may be totally different from ours, and two practical plans (the Planter's Plan and the Waterer's Plan) for actually doing it in everyday life.
