Podcast Blog: S6, E5 - Craig von Buseck, Evangelism in the 21st Century

Author and podcaster Dr. Craig von Buseck is passionate about evangelism. As he considers how the number of global Christians remains flat even as world population has grown, von Buseck wants to inspire Christians to live and act in such a way to draw more individuals to Christ.

The Selah Award-winning Practical Faith Academy Podcast from Cecil Taylor Ministries presents guests who have important things to say about putting your faith into practice. Cecil interviews each guest to understand their life stories and their ideas for living a seven-day practical faith.

In this episode, Cecil and Craig discuss evangelism renewal that starts with a practical faith relationship with the Holy Spirit.
