Does evangelization intimidate you? Do you worry you won’t have the right words or that the moment just won’t be right?

Dave VanVickle tells a powerful story of sharing the Gospel with a Muslim man in an airport bathroom and how that changed both of their lives. It’s a reminder that we often overcomplicate evangelization. In reality, God simply asks us to be open and attentive to Him.

Whether it’s with family, friends, or even a complete stranger, God is inviting you to trust Him to be available, and to let Him work through you in ways you might not expect.
