When most of us think of an “evangelist”, it’s usually a heroic example like Billy Graham or else a bit of an oddball operating on the fringe of our church. We don’t see ourselves as Billy and we don’t want others to think we’re the oddballs, so we shy away from evangelism altogether. Our guest on PEP Talk today wants us to realise that different types of evangelism can match our unique personality and gifts. It’s a liberating idea that means we rely on other members of the Christian body as we support each other in reaching out with the gospel.
