Evangelize 2024 Denver Colorado
Everyday Ministry
We're going for ourselves! And you should join us! We are running so we can grow in evangelism, both as individuals and as part of a community of believers. Many people struggle with this task, so we discuss why Christians should seek, make, and not just wait for opportunities to share the gospel.

Leading the people in front of you well
Everyday Ministry
Curriculum is just letters on a page. Our convictions give us an idea we want people to know and curriculum gives us a framework to get people into the bible and thinking this way.

Gospel verses that nag at you like a pebble in your shoe
Everyday Ministry
A gospel verse is one that stands out to you, and stays with you like a pebble in your shoe. What verses do you cling to or refer back to when it comes to sharing the gospel? We can be encouraged and motivated by dwelling on Scripture as we navigate the hard work of evangelism. 2 Cor 5 & 6 Col 1:20 Col 3 1 Peter 1:3 Matthias Media resources mentioned: Learn the Gospel Share the Gospel Two Ways To Live Music: Fun Kid - Quincas Moreira

Reading for the non-reader
Everyday Ministry
Reading is good and why don’t we do more of it. And how can we encourage non-readers to read? A disciple is a learner and the biggest way we learn is by reading. Reading good theology helps you in your Bible reading. And Bible reading helps you in your theology reading.

I invited my friend to church and she took me up on it
Everyday Ministry
Let’s walk through what it looks like to invite someone to church. Is it as hard as we think it is? Why is evangelism so hard? Marty and Lindsey talk about the Sunday morning time, thinking through what a non Christian would experience. As we continue to engage with people that have come to church with us, we can take the next step to share the gospel and have intentional spiritual conversations. Be an inviting person and be willing to get past the pain point as you engage with non-Christians. Matthias Media resources mentioned: Gospel Speech Share the Gospel The Vine Project Music:...

Gospel clarity for the everyday Christian
Everyday Ministry
Marty and Lindsey discuss what it means to be an everyday gospeler. The challenge to consider: if we aren't actively sharing the gospel then we haven't yet learned the gospel. God commands us to love God and love others. Sharing the gospel is the greatest way we can do that for those around us. Understanding clearly what the gospel message is crucial for everyday gospel work.
