Our Church Health - Need-Oriented Evangelism
James 2:15-26 (Pew Bible page 1882)
Rerun:
Not sharing pizza but faith.
Talking about the “E” word.
“E” Word:
Many clichés & myths.
Imitate & have success.
All Are Not Evangelists:
Great Commission.
Use spiritual gifts.
Less than 10% have the gift of evangelism.
All Can Share Faith:
Put faith into action.
Called to serve.
Why is God, Christ, Holy Spirit, and church important?
Different Approach:
Not manipulate or pressure.
Building friendships.
Show concern for their spiritual condition.
How Do We Respond:
Focus on those not in church.
Tend to their issues & needs.
Sharing pizza is like sharing the gospel.
All can be blessed.
