Church leader David Sims is taking back ground for the gospel on social media – sending Bibles to strangers and seeing people find faith.

Sims, who began evangelising on social media three years ago, has amassed 17,000 followers and interacts with about 100 people in his “Ask me anything” videos which address common questions about Christianity.
