   Why Do Christians Evangelize?

   Why do Christians talk about Jesus? Is it because we're trying to win arguments? Grow a church? Convince people we're right? We share our faith because we believe. We believe in the message. We believe in Jesus. We believe that what He did on the cross changes lives, forgives sin, restores hope, and transforms eternity. Nobody has to convince a person to talk about what they truly believe. We naturally share what has impacted us, changed us, and given us hope. In this episode of The One Minute Witness Podcast, Tom Elie unpacks why every believer is called to share their faith and how evangelism isn't reserved for pastors, missionaries, or a select few. It's a calling for every follower of Jesus. When you truly believe the gospel is good news, sharing it becomes less of an obligation and more of an overflow. 🔔 Subscribe so you never miss an episode! 👉 Share this with someone who needs to hear it.

   The Incredible Gift

   What if the greatest truth about heaven is that none of us could ever earn it? After weeks of talking about hell, eternity, urgency, judgment, and the posture of our hearts, the Emptying Hell series ends with the most important message of all — grace. Not earned. Not deserved. Not achieved through good works. Grace is the incredible gift of God given freely through Jesus Christ. While sin separated us from God, Jesus made a way for us to be forgiven, restored, and welcomed home. Salvation was never about being “good enough.” It has always been about surrendering to the One who already paid the price. In the final part of the Emptying Hell series on The One Minute Witness Podcast, Tom Elie unpacks the beauty of grace and why the gospel is the best news humanity has ever received. 🔔 Subscribe so you never miss anepisode! 👉 Share this with someone who needs to hear it.

   Our Struggle with Hell

   Why do we struggle so much with the idea of hell? Maybe because deep down, we compare ourselves to other people instead of comparing ourselves to a holy God. We think in terms of “good people” and “bad people,” while forgetting that every good thing we have is only because of God’s mercy and grace. Every good thing comes from Him. And eternity is shaped by what we believe about Jesus. In Part 4 of the Emptying Hell series on The One Minute Witness Podcast, Tom Elie talks about our struggle with hell, what eternity apart from God really means, and how the issue has always been about the posture of our hearts toward Him. 🔔 Subscribe so you never miss an episode! 👉 Share this with someone who needs to hear it.

   Emptying Hell - The Benefits of Urgency

   People are dying. Eternity is real. And the time to speak up is now. Too many believers live like there’s always more time. More time to invite. More time to share Jesus. More time to have the conversation. But every day, people step into eternity without hope. We cannot afford to be casual about what’s eternal. In Part 3 of the Emptying Hell series on The One Minute Witness Podcast, Tom Elie talks about the urgency of the gospel, the reality that we will be judged for our works, and why every believer is called to live with urgency for the sake of heaven. This episode is a reminder that the mission matters now. The gospel matters now. Souls matter now. 🔔 Subscribe so you never miss an episode! 👉 Share this with someone who needs to hear it.

   What AI Say About Hell

   What happens when you ask artificial intelligence about hell? We asked AI about hell. Just straight up asked it what hell is, who goes there, and what the Bible says about it. The answers? They might surprise you! Not because they were wrong, but because it was unexpectedly right. In a world that's running from the topic of hell, it's worth paying attention when even a machine trained on the entirety of human knowledge lands right where Scripture does. In Part 2 of the Emptying Hell series on The One Minute Witness Podcast, Tom Elie digs into what AI has to say about eternity and why the answers should make every believer stop and think about how they're sharing their faith. 🔔 Subscribe so you never miss an episode! 👉 Share this with someone who needs to hear it.

   Do You Believe Hell is Real?

   What if the most avoided topic in church is the one that matters most? There's a conversation most believers never have. Not because they don't believe it, but because they don't know what to do with it. Hell is all over Scripture. Jesus talked about it more than almost anyone. So why do we go quiet when it comes up? And here's the bigger question. If we really believe what the Bible says about eternity, how should that change the way we live, the way we talk, and the way we love the people around us? In this episode of The One Minute Witness Podcast, Tom Elie opens up a conversation the church has been avoiding and asks the question most of us haven't let ourselves sit with long enough: what does it actually look like to take eternity seriously? This one might shift something in you. 🔔 Subscribe so you never miss an episode! 👉 Share this with someone who needs to hear it.

   God Can Heal You Today

   What if you've been wrong about healing? A lot of believers quietly carry the same assumption — that miracles were for Bible times, that healing was for then, not now. We trust God to save a soul for eternity… but struggle to believe He'd touch a body today. Does that add up? Imagine walking into every room, every conversation, every hospital visit believing that the same God who opened blind eyes and raised the dead is still that God — right here, right now. What would you pray differently? How would your faith hit differently if healing wasn't just a chapter in a history book but a Christ given promise for TODAY? In this episode of The One Minute Witness Podcast, Tom Elie challenges the mindset that puts God's power in the past and opens the door to a Christ centered faith that expects Him to move — not just back then, but right where you're standing. 🔔 Subscribe so you never miss an episode! 👉 Share this with someone who needs to hear it.

   The Most Neglected Bible Verse

   What's the most neglected verse in the entire Bible? It's not hidden. It's not hard to find. In fact, you've probably read right past it dozens of times. But if believers actually lived this one verse out, it could change everything — your conversations, your relationships, and the way you share your faith. In this episode of The One Minute Witness Podcast, Tom Elie unpacks the verse most Christians overlook and shows why it might be the missing key to reaching the people right in front of you. 🔔 Subscribe so you never miss an episode! 👉 Share this with someone who needs to hear it.

    Is God "Enough"?

    What do you do when you've prayed and God didn't answer the way you hoped? Is He still enough?
