Summary

Knock, knock. Who's there? If a Mormon or a Jehovah's Witness comes to your door, what should you do and what should you say? As tempting as it may be, resist the urge to close the blinds and pretend you're not home or even worse, slam the door in their faces. Evangelizing someone involved in a cult may seem hopeless, but what if God wants to use you (yes YOU!) to reach them with the TRUE Gospel?

What are the "Do's and Don'ts" of witnessing to members of the WatchTower Society and the so-called Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? That's what we're addressing in this week's podcast as Frank interviews Dr. Brady Blevins, Senior Apologist of Watchman Fellowship and instructor for our brand-new online course, 'Conversations with the Faiths.' During this podcast episode, Frank and Brady will answer questions like:

What was Brady's first personal encounter with a Jehovah's Witness?
What do JW's and Mormons believe about Jesus and why do they evangelize in pairs?
What are the consequences of leaving these cults?
How long does it typically take a Mormon to convert to orthodox Christianity?
What single Bible verse obliterates the theology of Jehovah's Witnesses?
How have false prophecies affected JW membership?

As you'll be reminded during this episode, Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons are not your enemy. But if you want to be effective in reaching them, you've got to exercise patience and prepare to have ongoing conversations with their members. And what better way to prepare than by signing up for Brady's course, 'Conversations with the Faiths'? Class starts on Monday, 2/5 so enroll NOW and stay tuned for the upcoming midweek podcast where Brady will lay out the game plan for evangelizing Muslims too!
