This thread is about evangelism.
The Apostle Peter in Acts 10 is at that point a;
--Holy Spirit filled
--God directed
--Heaven appointed
evangelist.
Yet in that chapter he is about to get "Schooled" on a key detail he was missing in his evangelistic outreach. He was about to learn via symbols...
Hey guys,
I was wondering what your favorite books on Evangelism have been?
I've read a few that I found really interesting.
Here's my list:
Chasing The Dragon (Jackie Pullinger)
Capturing a Town for Christ (Elmer Towns)
Mere Christianity (C.S. Lewis)
Changing the World Through Discipleship...
Hi Everyone
My name is Chrissie, I am a South African living in Dubai. I have been a Christian for many years and am the founder of an evangelism and discipleship ministry (www.jrevolution.net).
I have never joined in any type of Christian forum before, but I am looking forward to connecting...
Frank Hogan, one of Ireland's most famous sports fans, passed away earlier this month. He was best known for his giant, yellow sign, which simply read "John 3:7." I'm a writer, considering writing a book on halfhearted Christianity, and his story has really jumped out at me the past few days. If...
Jesus instructed His disciples to go to all nations and preach the gospel and then the end would come. They did go to all the nations and so the end could come (in their lifetime.)
In Acts 2:5 Peter preached to "devout men from every nation under heaven." Luke lists the nations this included...

Hey guys! I made a survey about evangelism and if you have a few minutes to fill it out, I'd really appreciate it! I'm just curious about how strong people are about sharing the gospel and what some reasons are for not being more proactive in that. Thanks in advance!

A Facebook Friend posted a pithy little meme like statement that I think summarized most of my inner attitude on Evangelism etc. Sometimes getting at things we occasionally even see on this board.
Of course, being pithy it is probably a little over simplistic for the nit pickers etc...
I posted a half-dozen books that are among my favorites on my personal web site, under the evangelism section, including J.I. Packer's Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God.
This thread is not intended to be so much a round-and-round debate (though that could happen) but rather to "get the definitions on the table".
Essentially it is the issue of whether the Gospel invitation is for all - and "whosoever will" or is it a "selection" system where God "Selects" some...
Sept 2019 the U.S. Navy confirms existence of UFOs with hard evidence including visual sightings over a period of years -- and also tracking them on radar as well as engaging them in arial maneuver (dog fights) where they are not firing on anything just trying to follow/track it.

Mark 1:17 says "And Jesus said unto them, follow me and I will make you to become fishers of men." Do we have to go "door to door"? No. Do we have to speak to people "face to face"? No. Do we have to know the Bible real well? No. Do we have to leave our home? No. Does it have to be...
Revelation 3:20 does NOT speak to evangelism. The Lord Jesus Christ does not stand at the door of an unsaved person's heart, hat in hand, knocking, knocking, knocking, calling, calling, calling, hoping, hoping, hoping, only to be disappointed in many cases! Why? Because He knows that the person...
I am preaching a sermon on Luke 5:1-11 this Sunday. It has gotten me thinking about what works when it comes to evangelism. Jesus was incredibly seeker friendly, using a fishing boat to preach to a fishing community and using a big catch of fish to convert fishermen in to fishers of men. He...
I wanted to share this video with some of the young men here. My love to you all, and I pray for God's blessings upon you as you watch this video. I've transcribed the first small portion of the video so that you know what the teaching is about.
"I'm not really from the blogging, internet...
I am a volunteer at a non-profit Christian bible study group called "biblestudyforall.org"
We opened up an instagram account and started posting verse illustrations as a way to reach out to other believers and encourage people with the Word. But when we tried to link our website to the...
I'm seeking help from Calvinists in particular who can help me understand my loss of passion in evangelism since becoming a Calvinist, not by persuasion, but by studying the Word. I've also lost my passion in prayer.
I know I need to do both things because the bible says so, but I no longer...
So I found this interesting video when I was looking just now for a YouTube channel that I had heard about that is run by a young woman who had been born Mormon, converted to Islam, and then left Islam to become some kind of atheist or agnostic (she was featured on a podcast I listened to the...
I recently moved house to a smaller one than what I had. This meant that a gallon would not go into a pint pot. So I had to go through a lot of "stuff" and get rid of it. I sold some but gave most of it away. God told me to get rid of the past to prepare for the future.
One of the reasons for...
