For many Christians the word evangelism evokes a sense of fear and dread. The word often conjures up visions of preachers on street corners with bullhorns or stacks of spiritual tracts to be passed out door to door.
What does the word evangelism actually mean, and what does it actually...
Holy Father, no matter what we face, may we continue to speak your good news of relationship, love, and life. Amen.
Scripture tells us that in our lives in general, and especially in our spiritual lives, we need to distinguish what is true from what is false. The psalmist admonishes us to follow the truth of God and flee wicked ideas. This week we read about Judas, who did not follow the psalmist’s advice—with disastrous results. In Acts the apostles seek to replace Judas among their number with a witness to Jesus who has not been led astray. In John’s Gospel, Jesus bemoans the loss of Judas and prays that his followers will cling to his words. The author of First John testifies that God’s words are trustworthy above all others. They bear witness to the life that comes through Christ, whose legitimacy was confirmed by his ascension into heaven.
