The Gospel and Evangelism
22-24 Jan 2015

  • Intro

    Evangelism is the last command Jesus gave all of us at the end of His earthly ministry (Matt 28.18f). Our Lord commanded His disciples to "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations" (Mat 28:19). Yet it is also after Jesus has taught the disciples how to observe everything he had commanded them so that they could teach new disciples the same truth (Mat 28:20).

    It seems easy enough, and yet, the truth is, we're not always sure of what to say, and sometimes, we say what seems best to the individual, to ourselves, than what the Bible reveals to be the Gospel.

    But what doesn't change is the fact that this Gospel deserves better. In fact, what counts in this ministry is the faithfulness that our Lord deserves. So how will we serve Him as He has asked of us?

    Beginning this January 2015, the Fellow Workers' Conference will be focusing on 'The Gospel and Evangelism' followed by Discipleship in 2016. FWC 2015 will get us clear on Evangelism, give us the tools we need, prepare our hearts for service, help us plug into the right resources and network with others for faithful ministry. With talks that will make us think God's thoughts after Him, and training in Evangelism plus different electives, we should be able to find our feet and get started or keep going on preaching the good news.
