Evangelism

How Should We Evangelize?

Like the parable of the soils, we are to sow the seed of the gospel in all kinds of soil, leaving the results to God. In this Bible study, we learn how to share the gospel truthfully and urgently yet in a sprit of love.

Anyone Can Share the Gospel

"Anyone Can Cook!" said chef Gusteau in the movie Ratatouille. As Christians, we might also say, "Anyone can share the gospel!" We actually have a duty to be salt and light as part of Jesus' Great Commission. You might think an "evangelist" is a highly trained and gifted specialist, but God wants all of us to grow in confidence as evangelists. Find out more in this week's episode. You will be encouraged that even if you feel inadequate, God is ready to use you.
