A message from the series “Toolbox for Evangelism.” Evangelism by one person is great, but what happens when your local church has a culture of evangelism?
In other words, what if evangelism wasn’t just something that people talked about, encouraged, or discussed in Bible classes, but something that was expected of each and every individual member?
There’s no question it would be one of the most impactful things that church would ever do. After all, it’s far better to have 100 people teaching the Gospel than only a few. The results are exponentially better.

CloseNearly a third of Jesus' teachings consisted of stories, or parables. These seemingly innocent tales were not just given for entertainment though -- they were designed to penetrate the heart in a way a series of commands couldn't. They forced the listener to meditate on the teachings and make the change from the inside out. As such, they were exceedingly effective. Can we use parables today? Of course! Maybe not in the same way as Jesus, but using illustrations can still be effective if handled properly.
