Share Life Today

The Call to Reach the World

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
 
Roger Lonnquist, founder of the New Life Africa Satellite Network that broadcasts Share Life Africa to 53 radio stations in 15 countries, has a deep passion for reaching people with the message of Jesus. He said, “There is an immense hunger in Africa for the Gospel… and we need to present the Gospel so they can hear it, present teaching so they can grow, and go forward in their faith.” That same hunger exists all over the world — people searching for truth, for hope, for a Savior. And God has called each of us to be part of meeting that need. When we share the Gospel, God uses it to change lives. The Holy Spirit knocks on the door of their hearts and invites them to be transformed through trusting in what Jesus did on the cross for them. Let’s not keep this hope to ourselves — let’s take it to a world that’s desperate to hear it. To watch the full interview with Roger Lonnquist, visit sharelife.today.

The Rising Mission Force

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Brad and Doug Hutchcraft have a heart for discipling young believers, especially among indigenous communities. Brad shared, “And so to see some of those that we work with saying, ‘I wanna reach my people, but I also want to not just be the mission field. I want to be part of the mission force. Because I’ve got hope to share.’” That’s the power of discipleship. When people encounter Jesus, He not only saves them—He sends them. Around the world, indigenous young people are taking the Gospel back to their tribes, their towns, and even across nations. They’re showing what it looks like to turn from being the mission field into being the mission force. And that’s exactly what Jesus called us to do: to make disciples who make disciples. The next generation of Gospel-bearers is already rising up—let’s be the ones to equip them as they take the hope of Christ to their people and beyond.

God Shows Up

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Doug Hutchcraft reminds us that sharing our faith isn’t something we do alone. He said, “When you say, ‘I’m gonna obey the Great Commission, I’m gonna share His heart and I’m gonna share my faith.’ He will show up.” That’s the promise Jesus gave us — “Go and make disciples of all nations... and surely, I am with you always.” When we obey His call to share the Gospel, God’s presence and power go with us. It’s in those moments of faith-filled obedience to share our faith that we see Him work — softening hearts, opening doors, and changing lives. You may not feel qualified or confident, but remember this: when you take the step to speak about Jesus, you’re never stepping out alone. The God who sent you goes with you — and He will show up. So today, I encourage you...share your faith, and watch what God will do. For resources and to watch the full interview with Brad and Doug Hutchcraft, visit sharelife.today.

Infectious Faith

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Brad Hutchcraft has seen what happens when we take Jesus’ command to share the Gospel seriously. He said, “It’s when we share Jesus with someone that we get to see the impact it has on their lives and how the lights come on for someone. And it’s infectious.” When you tell someone about Jesus and watch their life change, it fuels your own faith. The joy of seeing God work in another person’s heart is contagious—it makes you want to keep going. So today, let’s share Jesus with someone who needs the hope found only in Him. It’s exciting to join God in the work He is already doing. And when you step out in faith and share the Gospel, you never know how God might use your obedience to ignite faith in another life.

Someone’s Chance at Jesus

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Ron Hutchcraft, evangelist and founder of Ron Hutchcraft Ministries, reminds us that sharing the Gospel isn’t optional — it’s our calling. He said, “You are here on mission for Jesus. He has literally placed you in your friend’s life. Would you tonight look in the mirror and say these words, ‘I am someone’s chance. I am someone’s chance at Jesus.’” That’s a sobering thought — and an inspiring one. God has strategically placed you in your workplace, your school, your neighborhood, even your family. None of those relationships are accidents but opportunities to be a living witness for Him. When we realize that, every conversation takes on eternal significance. You are a messenger of hope, carrying the Gospel to a world that desperately needs Jesus. Let’s ask today, “Lord, who’s my someone?” And then as God shows us, let’s take the opportunity to share our faith.

Testifying to God’s Faithfulness

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Jim Sanders, Executive Vice President of Ambassador Advertising, shared about how He has seen God’s faithfulness in his own life, “God's blessing has been beyond anything I could have imagined. In between, we started a satellite delivery company called Ambos. And it's clear based on who I am and who we are, that God's hand was in it every step of the way.” Through Ambos, God used Jim and his team to help Christian radio grow—pushing Gospel content to stations around the world. Jim could see God’s hand in it all. And the same is true in our lives. When we look back, we see God’s faithfulness—how He’s guided and transformed us since we placed our trust in Him alone. And sharing our “God stories” can open doors to Gospel conversations. So today, tell someone how God’s been faithful to you—and then share the Good News.

A Bright Future

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Jim Sanders, Executive Vice President of Ambassador Advertising, shared a powerful quote. “I love the quote from the new chairman of Home Depot, who coming on board, met with all his senior staff, and they were all talking about how wonderful it used to be, how the glory days. And he said, when your memories exceed your dreams, the end is near. And I added the corollary—when your dreams exceed your memories, the future is bright.” What a great quote! You know, it’s good to look back and remember God’s faithfulness. The stories of what He’s done encourage us and build our faith. But we can’t stay there. God’s mission moves forward — and there are still so many who need to hear the Gospel. So let’s thank God for His faithfulness yesterday and keep working for His Kingdom today. Let’s keep sharing the Greatest News. To watch the full interview with Jim Sanders, visit sharelife.today.

Ambassadors For Christ

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Jim Sanders, Executive Vice President of Ambassador Advertising, says something every believer needs to remember: “We want them to know us by our love. We want be a good representative of the Lord. But more importantly, this is part of our mission.” You and I are called to be ambassadors for Christ — living examples of His love, grace, and truth in a world that desperately needs Him. When people see how we love, forgive, and serve, they get a glimpse of Jesus through us. But our mission doesn’t stop there. As we love, forgive, serve, and walk beside people, we share the Gospel with them. We can back up our actions with our words. There are so many we see everyday that are longing for the hope and peace found only through Jesus. So let’s represent Him well today — and take seriously this mission to share the Good News with everyone we can. To watch the full interview with Jim Sanders, visit our website at sharelife.today.

God Orchestrates Our Steps

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Jim Sanders, Executive Vice President of Ambassador Advertising, has watched God turn ordinary days into extraordinary opportunities. He said, “As I've watched you over and over and over again, demonstrate how the Lord orchestrates—you would never imagine in a million years. And yet, if you're obedient and take that first step and get past that fear you might have, the result is incredible.” God’s Divine Appointments have been one of my favorite things to witness in my walk with God. He arranges moments that connect hearts and advance the Gospel in ways we could never plan on our own. So today, pause and ask the Lord to orchestrate your steps. He delights in aligning your path with someone who needs to hear about Jesus. And when He does, I’d encourage you to step out and share the Gospel.

No Chance Meetings

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
Jim Sanders, Executive Vice President of Ambassador Advertising, has seen God’s hand in the most unexpected moments. He said, “The fact that there are these divine serendipities, there are no chance meetings.” Every encounter—whether with a neighbor, a stranger in line, or someone sitting next to you—may be an appointment set by God Himself. I remember meeting a young man at a bus stop when I was out with a team in Arizona, who shared that he was just sitting there thinking about what was shared at his AA meeting, that having a relationship with God could change everything. He asked us if we knew what that meant. And we were able to share the Gospel with him. So the next time you meet someone unexpectedly, remember—it’s not coincidence, it’s divine design. So be ready to share the Gospel as God leads you! For resources to help you share the Gospel or to watch the full interview with Jim Sanders, visit sharelife.today
