Ruby Krucky EVAN 101-D15 LUO December 3, 2012 Methods of Evangelism Part ONE- Evangelistic Method #1 Of the two evangelistic intellectual methods, I have chosen to research the “Four Spiritual Laws.” Bill Bright wrote, “Just as there are physical laws that govern how the physical universe, so are there spiritual laws that govern your relationship with God. This method is most used in presenting the Gospel to someone because it is simpler. Bill Bright, the founder of Campus Crusade for Christ
When trying to understand what Evangelism I think D.T. Niles may have been close to the mark when he said “Christianity is one beggar telling another beggar where to find food”. Change the word Christianity to Evangelism, beggar to the sinner, and food to Jesus and I believe you have possibly the easiest way to explain Evangelism simply by saying “Evangelism is one sinner telling another sinner where to find Christ. However, over the past years Evangelism has been in my opinion misconstrued with
Evangelism is a vital aspect of church work. Without evangelism, the church cannot grow. The word itself describes the idea of reaching out and converting people to Christ. Unfortunately, we have lost sight of this noble goal. The command of our Savior to go into all of the world and preach the gospel is often taught, but rarely followed (Matt. 28:19-20; Mark 16:15-16). Poor teaching and faulty approaches to outreach are responsible for this. We must remedy these problems in order for the church
should be responsible for as much as they can when it comes to the preparation of a missionary for the field. First of all, he, along with his church, try to support missions as much as financially possible. Then, they begin to teach the methods of evangelism and about the mission field to those in the congregation who are ready for missions. Lastly, Pastor Scott feels that the church equips each individual for the field once they are ready for it. He recounts that this is one area where he wishes he

1. The way that we can see God’s call to mission in this chapter is the way that Moses gives us his four objections. Now the first of these four objections is when Moses asked, “Who am I that should go…?” (Ex. 3:11) To this question God answers by saying, “I will be with you” (v. 12) The mission was God’s, and he would be with those who carried it, also implying that the mission was greater than the missionary. The second objection was when Mose’s asks “Suppose I go
Christianity Rediscovered Chapter One: In the first chapter of “Christianity Rediscovered” by Vincent J. Donovan he is introducing us to the idea that missionaries now have a poor reputation due to their history. He says “History has offered the opportunity to deflect and distort the meaning of missionary work in every age”. For a long time a missionary was a person spreading the word of God and after years of doing so we have diminished many different beliefs, practices, cultures and history. At
Midterm Movies and books about missionaries haven’t portrayed missionaries in a positive light. Fiction writers and movie producers have led people on to believe, that missionaries are self-serving and as having specific intentions. One of the prime examples of misrepresenting a missionary; is the book called The Poisonwood Bible. I had to read The Poisonwood Bible in an English class. The Poisonwood Bible is the story of a missionary named Nathan Price and his family. Nathan was Reverend and he
n Africa block of Islam that is estimated at being the fourth largest community of Muslims in the world. Out of 4,600,000 inhabitants there are less than 2,000 followers of Christ that exist within their ranks, making this group of Christians less than 0.05% of the population. With the majority of Kanuri being Orthodox Sunni Muslims, and having a strong belief in their Muslims faith stand to reason why "0 percent are evangelized" this is the finding of various studies and information gather
Evangelizing with Western Christian Music When does evangelization through Western Christian music provide the exact opposite of evangelization among indigenous cultures? Robin P. Harris, James R. Krabill, and Vida Chenoweth provide arguments based on the concept that Christian missionaries cannot fully preach the gospel through the utilization of Western Christian scriptural songs. While all three individuals provide logical arguments, I, under the acquirement of my viewpoint on the unspoken power
