"The word Evangelism brings a lot anxiety when we mention it in many of our churches. Evangelism however is part of our discipleship as people of God. A broken world still needs to hear the good news of Jesus. As Lutherans we need to reclaim the “E” word and live out our baptismal covenant. We will explore the reasons why it is important and give you some ideas of the how."
