Evangelism

How do you evangelise?
Do you have a favourite technique?
Do you have any favourite resources?
Do you know someone who has a site dedicated to evangelism?

These are my favourite sites on evangelism:
Operation 3:15 (and their blog)
The Way Of The Master
Living Waters
Fish With Trish

  1. Hi patience, tis Amy, alias Donners.
    Evangelism for me is a very organic process that requires a whole post ( or a series).
    Firstly, much prayer, then much asking questions and listening, followed by explaining my own position and how I have reached it. This is my usual habit, but sometimes I get to explain my position first. My favourite resources vary as I try to know a lot about the person's background before I loan/give books/tracts. In the past I had tracts I gave to all and got a lot of 'it wasn;t for me'. However, when I spent longer in the 'learning someone's worldview' time, I found the books I gave fitted their needs more. However I do love 'religion is for fools' by Bill medley and 'more than a carpenter' by Josh Mcdowell.

  2. Hi Patience.

    I have been blogging with friends for a few years specifically on evangelism, on and off, and have been developing my ideas about.

    I am looking forward to a productive and God glorifying year of evangelism.

    A good study/DVD to use with your growth group is, Just Start Talking by matthias media in Sydney.

  4. Thank you friends. It's great to hear what other Christians are doing because one can feel very isolated at times.

  5. Re: feeling isolated, that's what fellowship groups are for :).

  6. I was in two Bible studies, a prayer group and Christian book study group. Most nights were taken up with something "fellowshipy". When you're in a town of 2000 with a small number of Christians and only a handful of reformed thinkers, it is rather lonely. True fellowship is not a bunch of people who call themselves Christians getting together. That is friendship. Fellowship is when we encourage, teach, exhort and more. We together grow closer to God.
