Why Evangelism Events Still Matter: Lessons from Power to Change Australia

How can churches and believers share Jesus effectively in today’s culture? And what role do events, relationships, and training play in modern evangelism? In this episode of the Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom speaks with Geoff Folland, National Director of Power to Change Australia, about the mission of connecting all Australians to Jesus. Together, they explore the balance between large evangelism events and relational, everyday faith conversations, highlighting why both approaches are essential in a sceptical and increasingly secular culture.

Why might training be an important part of evangelism rather than something optional? Read: Ephesians 4:11-12 Leaders equip believers for works of service.
