Episode 60: Josh McDowell, Atheist to Mega Evangelist

One80

Let us know what you thought of the show!

Be blown away by today's One80 with Josh McDowell. He used to wait for Christians to speak out in class so that he could tear them up. That is, before Josh encountered Jesus himself. After some of these very students issued a challenge for Josh to disprove Christianity, hear how his quest brought him to the person of truth and took him from skeptic to one of the country’s greatest evangelists, as well as the father of modern apologetics.
Josh has faithfully served with Cru as an evangelist for 60 years. He's written more than 150 books, and given over 32,000 talks in 139 countries, addressing more than 46 million.
Be encouraged by the power of forgiveness and incredible restoration in Josh's moving story. And enjoy the Sendoff, where TC Boyd the Artist shares a rap all about Josh's amazing life.
