What is Your Top Priority?
Join Barry Meguiar and Walt Kallestad as the share why faith sharing should be the top priority in your life, every day. We are all witnesses for Christ, and some of us are witnesses for the prosecution! How you live every day either moves people closer or further away from Jesus, and intentionally living to share God's love with others is the most important thing you can do as a Christian.

I am willing to share my faith. There is nothing going to come between me and sharing the good news in people's lives. I may have been the only person in life to tell them. You know, we have that responsibility every day. Everybody who we're with, we don't know. We may be here tomorrow, but will they be here tomorrow? We don't know. Welcome to the Ignite with Barry Maguire Podcast where Barry's book and passion for spreading God's love are guaranteed to ignite your life. Now listen in and prepare to have your life ignited. I want you to meet Walt Callestad. Walt and I have this shared passion for moving everybody every day closer to Jesus. I won't be able to hear what a real guy, you know, somebody other than myself, that's having so much fun doing what you do. So how did it start for you? Were you always a face shared? I mean, it just happened over a period of time or what turned the light on for you? High school and college, I really had so many friends. I was involved in athletics and a bunch of different kinds of things where my friends didn't want to go to church. And I thought, why don't you want to go to church with me? So I'd go alone and they said, well, it's boring. And I thought, how can you make faith that is so exciting and so dynamic, how can you make it incredibly boring? I started talking to my friends and I had a friend that I wanted to, I was working out with them and I wanted to share Christ. And he took off in his car and he never came back. He was in a tragic accident that took his life. And I promised God, he said, God, I am going to share my faith. There is nothing going to come between me and sharing the good news in people's life. You lose somebody like that. They didn't know. And I may have been the only person in their life to tell them, you know, we have that responsibility every day. Everybody we're with. We don't know. We may be here tomorrow, but will they be here tomorrow? We don't know. How important is faith sharing in your day? Oh, it's one of the top priorities. In fact, it is the top priority because I want people, I want their life to count. And I know their destiny and their very eternity is at stake. Every day. Well, everybody is a witness. Absolutely. Everybody is. And I guess we have to decide what kind of witness we want to be. A witness for God or a witness. Exactly. Exactly. We can't get away from it. We're a witness. Every Christian. If you're known as a Christian, you're a witness. And what they look at is, do I want your life? And many people say, I don't want that life. If that's what a Christian is all about. I don't want that life. And we need to reflect the life of Christ. You
