Candid Conversations with Dr. Jonathan Youssef

Do you feel intimidated by the idea of evangelism or wonder how to share your faith in today’s world?

In this remarkable new episode of Candid Conversations, Jonathan sits down with his father, Dr. Michael Youssef, to discuss the misconceptions surrounding evangelism and share this simple truth—it’s just one beggar telling another where to find bread.

During the conversation, Dr. Youssef reflects on the sermon that led him to Christ 60 years ago, a message about God’s open door of mercy, and how that eternity-changing message now fuels his ministry at The Church of The Apostles in Atlanta, Georgia, and around the world through Leading The Way.

Listen in as one generation encourages the next to press ahead as long as the door remains open.
