In Part 2 of our powerful conversation with author Preston Fiddler ( 1000 Cups of Tea ), we continue exploring what it means to share the gospel through authentic relationships, not agendas.

Too often, Christians can unintentionally treat people like projects. But what if evangelism started with genuine love instead? In this episode, we unpack a transformational mindset: we don’t love people to convert them, we love people because we’ve been converted.

Preston shares practical wisdom on how to build meaningful, cross-cultural relationships rooted in compassion, listening, and patience. You’ll hear how simple moments like sharing your personal testimony or offering to pray for someone can open doors for God to move in powerful ways.

Whether you’re an introvert, new to sharing your faith, or someone longing to connect more deeply with your neighbors, this episode will encourage and equip you to take simple, faithful steps.
