Is Street Evangelism Better Than Building Relationships? // Ask Pastor John

A video published by Desiring God on January 31st, 2019

God has not given us a formula for when to share the gospel quickly and when to share over time in the context of a relationship. Both are needed. There are multiple ways to share the good news of Jesus Christ. You can open-air preach. Or you can just walk up to a stranger on the street with a tract and hope for a brief conversation. Or you can invest into someone’s life as a friend first, eventually leading them to the gospel. One approach does not preclude the others. So what do different forms of evangelism look like in Pastor John’s life? At the recent CROSS conference, Pastor John fielded audience questions. I wanted to share two of them with you today.
