Evangelism in Acts 15: The Gospel Implications of the Jerusalem Council

April 18, 2024

Evangelism in Acts 15 is the fourteenth episode in our series looking at the evangelistic encounters found in the Book of Acts. In this episode, Matt and Tricia Scribner discuss the Gospel implications of the Jerusalem council. While there is not a direct evangelistic in Acts 15, we decided that the motivations for and implications of this council have significant implication for evangelism going forward as Christianity spreads into the Gentil world.


When we developed our training approach for Engage 360, we did not focus on what verses can be used to explain the Gospel. Instead, we looked to the Bible and asked the question, “What did they actually do?” Below is the summary of their approach.


  • G: Gauge your audience
  • O: Offer common ground
  • S: Shift to Christianity and the Gospel
  • P: Provide evidence
  • E: Explain the Gospel
  • L: Leave with a clear next step
