Joined-Up Evangelism: Helping People Connect Their Deepest Longings to the Gospel - Andy Bannister
Although many secular people say they’re not interested in God, their lives are often shot through with what Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor calls “signs of transcendence” (longings for things like justice, beauty, love, and joy). This talk explores some of the cultural challenges to evangelism in post-Christian Europe and shows how we can “join the dots” for our friends, helping them see how the gospel offers the deepest answers to the questions they are already asking.
