Evangelism Conference

June 6-8, 2008

The winter has melted into spring and before long people will be out in abundance to enjoy the coming summer months. This means that we northeasterners are presented with an opportunity to get out of our caves and speak the gospel of the kingdom and the cross to a world in desperate need. It is our privilege to share the message of repentance and forgiveness on behalf of the coming Son of Man.

why evangelism is needed
what the biblical message is
what the aim of evangelism is
a simple method for doing evangelism
guidelines to aid in communicating effectively
overcoming common objections

Video footage of actual evangelism encounters will be shown so that you can see how this all plays out in the real world. In addition, there will be time for practicing evangelism on eachother so that we can try out what we've learned in a safe environment. Furthermore, there will be time for questions and answers.

Come, bring your Bible, and let's spend some time working on our understanding and practice of evangelism.

Note: you will not be required to actually do evangelism to nonbelievers during the conference. The primary purpose is to inform. However, an optional Saturday evening outing will be available for those interested in “trying out” what was taught at the park.
