Evangelism

Evangelism

~ "At its best, evangelism liberates in two ways. People are liberated from bondage, and people are liberated to self-fulfillment as God’s beloved children." -- Paul R. Dekar,

~ Evangelism at its core is God coming after us, even at our very worst, to invite us to come home.” – John P. Bowen

~ “The purpose of evangelism is not just to save people from dying without Christ, but to save them from living without him.”   -- George E. Sweazy

Quotes:

Many of those who once were so passionately in love with Christ now run about pursuing their own interests. They're burdened down with stress and problems, chasing after riches and the things of this world. - Charles Spurgeon

Beware of no man more than of yourself; we carry our worst enemies within us. - Charles Spurgeon

~ The phone rang.  It was my friend Annette.  She had been going through a rough time.  "I feel so alone," she said.  "I've even lost God and don't know how to find him."  I'd felt the same way once, and told Annette how making a gratitude list had helped.  "Write down the numbers one through fifty down the side of a piece of paper," I explained.  "Then go back and count the things you're thankful for.  And remember, it's not the things you're supposed to be thankful for, but the things you really are thankful for."  "Okay then, I'll give it a try," Annette said, hanging up.  Not long after, the phone rang again.  It was Annette.  "I found him!" she exclaimed joyfully…Lora Clark
