Develop theological, cultural and practical skills and insight to speak into a complex world. The EPIC framework is the essential tool to help you grow in powerful and considered public evangelism.

Hear what our latest cohort has to say about EPIC...

The power to engage through public storytelling

Amy Brown

EPIC helped me in my public evangelism to really think through how to best structure a talk. I think it helps people really understand the point and reach a conclusion that changes the way they think or do things, and challenges them to keep investigating.

Connecting ordinary life with the Gospel

Tim Green

EvQ is helping me make connections between ordinary life and the places and people that I talk to with the Good News of the Gospel and how it speaks to the longing and the ache of every heart.

Growing and connecting with a network of gifted public evangelists!

James Veltmeyer

It's equipped me in preaching and speaking about Jesus and just to be in the network of other great people who have the gifts of speaking and to be able to bounce things off as well!

EVQ Public Evangelist FAQ

  • How is the Public Evangelist Programme different to the Natural Evangelist Programme?

    Whilst both the Public and Natural Evangelist Programmes offer the all-important one-on-one mentoring and mentee groups to help you shape and work towards specific evangelism goals, the Public Evangelist Programme also includes the additional benefit of Public Speaking Consultation, providing "hands-on" guidance and support to further enhance your preaching impact.

  • What happens in the One-on-One mentoring sessions?

    You will have access to your EVQ public evangelism mentor over the course of the programme to support you with preparing & reviewing your public talks. When you're accepted into the programme, we’ll do our best to assign you a mentor who can help support you in your specific evangelism goals and opportunities.

  • What happens in the mentee catch-ups?

    Mentee catch-ups allow you to connect with other mentees who are taking the same classes and working through their goals. These catch-ups are great times to pray, connect and discuss common goals.

  • What Realtime sessions do I get in this programme?

    In addition to the 3-day intensive, EPIC, this programme includes our range of online sessions conducted by a range of skilled evangelistic trainers; “Welcome2EvQ”, "Half-time" and "Full-time" sessions with Sam Chan; "In Tune" with Max Jeganathan & Co, and "ELEVATE".

  • I can't make one of the Realtime sessions? Are they recorded?

    Yes! In the majority of cases the Realtime sessions are recorded and shared with participants. However, it’s worth noting that the value of joining the sessions is that you get the opportunity to ask our expert trainers lots of questions!

  • What is the time commitment across the programme?

    “You get out what you put in!” In addition to the 3-day intensive, EPIC, there are ~36 hours annually across the Realtime online sessions, one-on-one mentoring and mentee group catch-ups.

  • I really want to join the programme, but the cost is a bit of a stretch right now. Are there flexible payment options?

    We certainly don’t want cost to be the barrier! We offer a range of interest free payment options. Further details can be provided during the Application Stage.

  • “Where is the EPIC Intensive held, and across what dates?”

    This is very much determined by the size and location of the Public Evangelist cohort. Both location and date options will be offered to ensure the cohort receives the best possible training experience. Please note that the course is run over three consecutive weekdays (Mon-Wed) in February to maximise potential outcomes across the year.
