“When we think of evangelism, we should not first think of guest - TopicsExpress



          

“When we think of evangelism, we should not first think of guest services, evangelistic courses, street preaching, or door knocking. We should think of Gary at a meeting of the residents’ association. We should think of Hannah in her office. We should think of Sharon serving a meal to her husband. Here is an exercise to help identify opportunities for everyday mission.5 Think of all the activities, however mundane, that make up your life: (1) daily routine (traveling to work, eating meals, doing chores, walking the dog, playing with the children); (2) weekly routine (grocery shopping, watching favorite television programs, exercising); and (3) monthly routine (gardening, getting a haircut, going to the movies). You should have a long list of activities. For each one, ask whether you could add: (1) a community component by involving another member of your Christian community; (2) a missional component by involving an unbeliever; and (3) a gospel component by identifying opportunities to talk about Jesus.” Excerpt From: Tim Chester & Steve Timmis. “Everyday Church.” Crossway, 2012. iBooks.
