The Journey» November 14 - 2009
The Journey Saturday, November 14, 8:30am - Noon @ Blackhawk Church
Many of us struggle with talking to others about our faith and the whole idea of evangelism. We often think it's is for the extrovert, the persuader, the great sales-person. What's more, many of us less have than positive associations with public evangelists, making it hard for us to want to be involved. In this seminar, we will attempt reimagine evangelism as primarily a story telling experience. Our goal is to empower you to talk about your faith in new ways, and be equipped with new ideas to connect friends and family with the story of Jesus.
Taught by Terry Erickson, the director of evangelism at InterVarsity Christian Fellowship.
