Description

Have you ever tried sharing your faith only to be met with the reply, "I don't need to be saved"? That disarming response has stopped countless gospel conversations in their tracks. In this thought-provoking episode, Daniel and Norval Trindade tackle the challenging terrain of evangelism in resistant cultural contexts.

In this insightful episode of the History Makers Leadership Podcast, Daniel sits down with Norival Trindade to address one of the most pressing challenges facing Christian leaders today: how to approach evangelism in contexts where spiritual receptivity is low or seemingly absent.

From the secular settings of post-Christian societies to the unique dynamics of pre-Christian cultures, this episode unpacks real-world experiences and pastoral wisdom for navigating conversations about faith with grace, clarity, and courage. Whether you're ministering in your local community, leading in a cross-cultural mission, or simply trying to share your faith with a friend or colleague who “doesn’t need to be saved,” you’ll find this episode both practical and personally convicting.

Norival shares a pivotal early story from his days as a medical student in Brazil—a moment that shaped his lifelong commitment to evangelism—and opens the door to a raw, honest discussion about rejection, misunderstanding, and the quiet power of consistent witness.
