What if we began to rethink evangelism? What if we understood that evangelism begins with listening? What if we began to rethink evangelism as a way of life rather than a specific set of practices? What if we understood evangelism to be anything we do to help another person move closer to a relationship with God? With humor, wisdom, and experience, Dr. Campolo will energize and equip you for effective mission and help you share your faith with others.
There are only two months left until the 2009 Louisiana Annual Conference, slated for June 7-10 at the Ponchartrain Center in Kenner, La. During the 2008 Annual Conference in Shreveport, Bishop William W. Hutchinson challenged local churches throughout the conference to become Welcoming Certified Congregations by the 2009 annual conference. That means there is a little less than two months left for local churches to meet the Bishop’s challenge and become Welcoming Certified through the ‘Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors’ denominational initiative sponsored by United Methodist Communications.
