Street Evangelism in Sydney, Australia
Mike with the mic (microphone) is the catch phrase title for the evangelistic pursuits which focus on street ministry across Sydney Australia. Mike McCarthy and his wife Lisa hit the streets of Sydney each day (weather permitting) to reach as many people for God while He may be found. Mike and Lisa are passionate about reaching the lost and produce daily salvation reels of those people who have prayed to receive Jesus as saviour. Each day new videos and shorts are published on Youtube - all done for the glory of God. The ministry started in earnest in October 2023 and to date over 13,000 people have prayed to receive Jesus as saviour. The Youtube channel has reached over 2,800,000 viewers and is seen in 130 countries around the world.
As people, our busy daily routines consume us and thoughts of our lives after death rarely enter our mind. Out on the street, we act as a beacon to prompt people to think about their eternal destiny. We feel a passion for people who do not yet know God. Our work for Him is not something you would choose to do because there is strong opposition to the gospel. However, we do get great joy and fulfilment from seeing people receive Jesus and lives being changed.
Romans 10:13-15
13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?
15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!”
