In this episode of the Hope + Help Podcast, Christine Chappell interviews Becky Pippert about her book, Stay Salt: The World Has Changed, Our Message Must Not. During the conversation, Becky recounts her personal journey from agnosticism to faith in Jesus Christ, and unpacks common reasons why Christians hesitate to share their faith with others. She also explains why evangelism isn't exclusively for those with a specific spiritual gifting, offers practical help for winsomely engaging skeptics, and highlights simple ways believers can "stay salt" in the midst of global catastrophes and pandemics.
Our weakness and inadequacy are no hinderance to God working through us.– Becky Pippert

About the Book
The world has changed in so many ways, and many of us no longer feel confident when it comes to evangelism, especially with the rise of hostility towards Christian points of view. Keeping quiet is becoming our default position. Yet the world has not changed in one way: it still needs Jesus.
Renowned evangelist Becky Pippert draws on decades of conversations about Christianity around the world to call and equip ordinary Christians to share Jesus through their ordinary day-to-day conversations. She shows that by leaning on our extraordinary God, such conversations can, and often do, have extraordinary results. They will transform hearts, transform society, and transform the world!
Weaving Bible teaching with compelling stories, Stay Salt is the next generation “Out of the Saltshaker” for this new era. It will give readers the confidence to share Jesus like Jesus: relevantly, thoughtfully, and effectively.
