"Have Christians Gotten Evangelism Wrong?"

sharing your faith 
Last night over a long spring evening dinner on our patio, Kristi and I got to hear from a couple who have been missionaries in Cameroon for years.  They are back in the States, at least for a while, now.  And they are having to rediscover what "evangelism" means in this, their homeland!  The husband is visiting in a  neighborhood where he shared the Gospel 20 years ago, but finding a different neighbor, a different response and the need to understand our new context.

Here's an online article I ran across that offers some thoughts about: 
  • Come v Go
  • Consumer v Disciple, and
  • Do v Be

What do you think? 

How do these apply to your setting, maybe the new church you're working with?
