evangelism

Religion is like a pair of shoes.....Find one that fits for you, but don't make me wear your shoes.

I don't know any Baptists who don't want to see folks get saved_ you start winning folks to the Lord and baptizing them_ They'll pretty well put up were [your methods].

Christian education begins where evangelism ends, helping believers grow in their faith.

We need to be the church that serves and loves people now, today, exactly where they are. Until then, we are simply managing decline.

Dharma is not about believing in God. It__ about making the right choices, doing the right things and leading the right life.

Reading stories forces us to exercise our empathy and imagination muscles, and that helps us conceive what the Bible depicts or demands, helps us connect with others, helps us illustrate what the text teaches, and helps us apply the text__ truths.

The mission that Jesus invites us to participate in is primarily a relational one in nature. Our ability to sustain our relationship in a meaningful way will have a direct impact on our missional fruitfulness.

There is nothing in the world or the Church _ except the church's disobedience _ to render the evangelization of the world in this generation an impossibility.

Not called!' did you say?'Not heard the call,' I think you should say.Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help. Go stand by the gates of hell, and hear the damned entreat you to go to their father's house and bid their brothers and sisters and servants and masters not to come there. Then look Christ in the face _ whose mercy you have professed to obey _ and tell Him whether you will join heart and soul and body and circumstances in the march to publish His mercy to the world.

God uses prepared vessels, no substitute. God is not looking for a rocket scientist, he's looking for those with a mind, and then he will finish the rest. It's like, 'God, here I am, send me,' and He will do the rest. He will prepare you. He will provide for your preparation. One thing I have seen in all my years of travel all over the world and in teaching and in proclaiming the Gospel, whoever is hungry for the word, God will break every barrier to get to that person. And who wants to know God, God will make Himself available to that person - somewhere somehow. The problem the church is having today is we have so many unprepared vessels in the church, and it's showing everywhere.

If we really believe the gospel we proclaim, we'll be honest about our own beauty and brokenness, and the beautiful broken One will make himself known to our neighbors through the chinks in our armor - and in theirs.

God has made relationships His chosen delivery system for the gospel of hope.

When the author admits to Christians that he was not a Christian himself, he says their dialogue became "distant and rehearsed, like a pitch for Ginsu knives.

Faith in Christ leaped from person to person like some divine epidemic, not of disease but of spiritual health.

Radical obedience to Christ is not easy... It's not comfort, not health, not wealth, and not prosperity in this world. Radical obedience to Christ risks losing all these things. But in the end, such risk finds its reward in Christ. And he is more than enough for us.

False conversions are a wart on the face of Christian evangelism.

The more faithful preachers are to the Word of God in their preaching, the more liable they are to the charge of hypocrisy. Why? Because the more faithful people are to the Word of God the higher the message is that they will preach. The higher the message, the further they will be from obeying themselves.

Facebook has more than 1 billion members, which by population makes it the third largest country in the world__omewhere between India and the United States. Who__ sending missionaries to that country? Who__ planting churches there?
