It seems that we tend to make evangelism much more complicated than we have to. More often than not, people will tend to say something like, “I don’t know anyone who isn’t already a Christian.” And while that may well be true, reality often betrays the label. Asking folk if they have a “church home” will invariably prompt them to say yes. End of conversation. The more pointed question we might want to ask is, “Do you go to church?” More often than not in today’s culture, folks will probably say no, thus opening the door for us to invite those folks to “come and see.” It’s a “yes/no proposition” that has nothing to do with any of us personally; rather, inviting another person to join you at St. James has everything to do with sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ, him crucified and raised from the dead, until the day of his coming. Evangelism isn’t rude or invasive. It’s not rocket science or brain surgery. Sharing Christ, quite simply put, is a gift offered without our taking ownership of what the recipient of our gift does with it. Give the Gift.
