Who am I? Why am I here? Does my life really matter? And what happens when the answers we've relied on no longer seem enough? Some of the best opportunities for evangelism begin not with having all the answers, but with being willing to explore the questions people are already asking. In this episode of The Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom speaks with author, entrepreneur and speaker Ian Reilly about his book Encounter - a gripping true story written primarily for non - Christians that explores identity, purpose, meaning and faith through Ian's extraordinary experiences living in Samoa. From surviving a devastating cyclone to confronting cultural differences, hardship and the feeling that his best efforts were achieving nothing, Ian discovered himself wrestling with some of life's biggest questions. He shares why honest stories can sometimes reach people in ways traditional Christian books cannot, and how Encounter is already helping Christians begin natural conversations about Jesus with non-Christian friends and family. This episode will encourage you to think differently about evangelism - not simply asking, “What should I tell someone about Jesus?” but also, “What story could help them start asking questions?” IN THIS EPISODE Ian Reilly's Samoa experience and its impact on faithThe role of storytelling in spiritual conversationsBig questions of identity, purpose, and meaningChallenges of living in a different cultureHow hardship shapes understanding of justice and evilUsing personal stories to introduce JesusThe importance of story in biblical teachingPractical ways to share faith through books EPISODE CHAPTERS 00:00 - Introduction 02:14 - The cyclone and its aftermath 05:12 - The impact of the Samoa experience on faith 10:07 - Big questions faced during hardship 12:09 - Cultural perspectives on discipline and justice 14:14 - The role of story in sharing faith 16:09 - How the book opens conversations about Jesus WATCH THE EPISODE Video Episode - Watch now Am I Significant? - Watch the short video MEET IAN REILLY Ian Reilly is an Australian author, artist, innovator and entrepreneur whose life has taken him from remote Pacific villages to international boardrooms.
