The Future of Evangelism is Not Programs

This talk was given at The Gospel and Our Cities conference in Chicago in 2018. It has been adapted into a FREE ebook and audiobook from Redeemer City to City called How to Reach the West Again.
Christianity is declining in the West. Churches in the United States, Canada, Australia, and Europe are closing their doors at an accelerating rate. How will the church respond? New York Times bestselling author and pastor Timothy Keller argues that this decline should prompt us to rethink the church's mission from the ground up. Using the early church as our guide, churches and individual Christians must examine ourselves, our culture, and Scripture to work toward a new missionary encounter with Western culture that will make the gospel both attractive and credible to a new generation.

Amen. We cannot improve on the methodology of Jesus

This “new” alpha effort dates back to 2017… 3 years ago. I had never
heard about it. Very little is said about evangelism in evangelical
circles today. EFC should have monthly teachings offered on it inviting
all churches to prompt their congregations to take part.
Evangelism should be in every neighborhood, every christian home, in
Canada .. asap. Christians should learn the approach to different target
people, their culture, worldview, etc as well as the proofs of the
credibility of scriptures and the message therein.
