If You’re Not Evangelistic, You’re Not Evangelical (077)

October 19, 2021

In Episode 77, we talked about gaining a deeper understanding of God and his work in the world today, specifically the link between evangelism and being evangelical. We hone in on a statement made by John Wilbur Chapman, who quotes, “If you’re not evangelistic, you’re not evangelical” as the foundation of this podcast.

 

Although this is a topic that may cause a stir amongst the Christian community, it is something that we should take a stand and share with others. Priority number one in the church is the Great Commission, which is to save those who are lost.

 

Tune in now and let’s go bigger, better, and deeper!
