The Sacrament of Evangelism, Paperback

Descriere

A recent statistic suggests that 15% of the churches in America are growing but only 2. 2% are growing evangelistically. Much of the church in America has lost its evangelistic zeal and forgotten how to re-ignite it; this book is an attempt to light the fuse of the powder keg so that the church, long-distracted by so many things, might return to its primary mission in the world. We do not take Christ to anyone; He is already there. We go to make explicit what we see Him doing implicitly. It is not a question of whether God is at work in His world . . . Our hope is to see more of God s people at work with Him Learn about why we share our faith, Christ's role in our evangelism, the deep longings in all our hearts, and how to effectively live a sacramentally evangelistic lifestyle. We are offering a way of looking at life and the world that is open to God s presence everywhere. This approach is called sacramental. And where better to experience God s presence than in His workplace? This is the Sacrament of Evangelism.
