In 1989, shortly after the fall of the [[Berlin Wall]], Zacharias was invited to speak in [[Moscow]]. While there he spoke to students at the Lenin Military Academy as well as political leaders at the Center for Geopolitical Strategy.<ref name=Walking/> This was the first of many evangelism opportunities towards the political world. Future events included an invitation to [[Bogota, Colombia]] in 1993, where he spoke to the judiciary committee on the importance of having a solid moral foundation.<ref name=Walking/>
 
Zacharias took a sabbatical in 1990 and spent part of that year as a visiting scholar at [[Cambridge University]]. There he heard lectures by men such as [[Stephen Hawking]] and studied under professors such as [[John Polkinghorne]] and [[Don Cupitt]]. He also wrote his first book, ''A Shattered Visage: The Real Face of Atheism.''<ref name=Walking/> In 1993 Zacharias was invited to speak at his first [[Veritas Forum]] at [[Harvard University]],<ref name=Walking/> and later that year was one of the keynote speakers at [[Urbana (convention)|Urbana]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.urbana.org/_articles.cfm?RecordId=591 |title=Jesus Christ Among Other Gods: Urbana 1993 Address |author=Zacharias, Ravi| accessdate=2008-07-05 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20070716153244/http://www.urbana.org/_articles.cfm?RecordId=591 |archivedate=2007-07-16}}</ref> Zacharias continues to be a frequent guest at these forums,<ref>{{cite journal |date=January 1996 |title=NEWS: Truth Makes a Comeback in University Settings |journal=Christianity Today Magazine |volume=40 |issue=1 |url=http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/1996/january8/6t1061.html |accessdate= 2008-02-18 |quote=While certain speakers such as Zacharias, sociologist Os Guinness, law professor Phillip Johnson, and philosopher Eleanor Stump have made repeat appearances, the actual presentation differs from school to school.}}</ref> both giving lectures and answering students in question and answer sessions at academic institutions such as the [[University of Georgia]],<ref>{{cite news |first=Pearman |last=Parker |title=Celebrated evangelist attracts thousands |url=http://media.www.redandblack.com/media/storage/paper871/news/2007/09/28/News/Celebrated.Evangelist.Attracts.Thousands-2998652.shtml |work=redandblack.com |publisher=The Red and Black Publishing Company Inc. |date=2007-09-28 |accessdate=2008-02-18 }}</ref> the [[University of Michigan]],<ref>{{cite news |first=Karen |last=Schwartz |title=U.

Zacharias attracted media attention when in 2004 [[The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]] (LDS Church) opened its signature pulpit at the [[Salt Lake Tabernacle]] to him for a series of messages. Zacharias delivered a sermon on "Who Is the Truth? Defending Jesus Christ as The Way, The Truth and The Life" to some 7,000 lay-persons and scholars from both LDS and Protestant camps in an initiatory move towards open dialog between the camps.<ref>{{cite news |first=Carrie A. |last=Moore |title=Evangelical preaches at Salt Lake Tabernacle |url=http://deseretnews.com/dn/view/0,1249,595105580,00.html |work=Deseret Morning News |publisher=deseretnews.com |date=2004-11-15 |accessdate=2008-02-15 }}</ref>

Some evangelicals criticized Zacharias' decision not to use this opportunity to directly address the "deep and foundational" differences between the historic Christian faith and that of the LDS church. He responded by asserting that Christians should not immediately condemn Mormonism's theological differences but "graciously build one step at a time in communicating our faith with clarity and conviction". He said this is just as effective as showing someone the faults of their faith.<ref>{{cite news |first=Pauline J. |last=Chang |title=Evangelical Defends Decision to Speak at Mormon Tabernacle|url=http://www.christianpost.com/article/20041228/7363_Evangelical_Defends_Decision_to_Speak_at_Mormon_Tabernacle.htm |work=The Christian Post|publisher=christianpost.com|date=2004-12-24|accessdate=2008-03-20 }}</ref> The speaking engagement was nearly sabotaged by a claim by event organizer Greg Johnson, president of Standing Together, that Zacharias had nothing to do with editing the book ''[[The Kingdom of the Cults]]'' and had only loaned his name to the latest edition. Johnson later apologized for his comment.<ref>{{cite news |first=James A. |last=Beverley |title=Evangelist in Brigham Young's Court |url=http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2005/january/2.20.html |work=Christianity Today |publisher=christianitytoday.com |date=January 2005|accessdate=2008-03-20 }}</ref>

Zacharias was interviewed in [[Focus on the Family]]'s Truth Project. In November 2009, Zacharias signed an ecumenical statement known as the ''[[Manhattan Declaration: A Call of Christian Conscience|Manhattan Declaration]]'' which affirms the sanctity of human life, the dignity of marriage as a union of husband and wife, and the freedom of religion are foundational principles of justice and the common good.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://demossnews.com/manhattandeclaration/press_kit/manhattan_declaration_signers |title=Manhattan Declaration: A Call of Christian Conscience |publisher=Demossnews.com |date= |accessdate=2011-05-29}}</ref>

Zacharias is an opponent of homosexuality, arguing that he cannot "justify an aberration of [human sexuality] in somebody's else's life" and noting that a homosexual "proclivity does not justify expressing... that proclivity".<ref>[http://www.thedp.com/article/2014/02/ravi-zacharias Controversial evangelist Zacharias speaks at Penn]</ref><ref>{{cite video
