THINKING & PRAYING EVANGELISTICALLY

The theme of our Tuesday night midweek (open to all, but realistically consisting of 5 people on a low night, 15 on a high night, and regularly 8-10) is "Thinking and Praying Evangelistically."

In fact - Our church is a member of an evangelical denomination. This simply means that we embrace the doctrine of personal salvation espoused by Jesus when he told Nicodemus, "You must be born again." We believe in a real heaven, and a real hell, and we believe that Jesus is the way of salvation.

In actuality - While our church is evangelical in name, it falls short of being evangelistic in practice. This means, that while we say we are evangelicals, in practice we have not placed a high priority on sharing this with members of our community.

In faith - It is our Tuesday night prayer that that will change. the Tuesday night midweek is praying and believing that we will train ourselves to not only "think and pray evangelistically", we will begin to "act evangelistically." Will you pray with us?

What do you think? Is evangelism important. Is it important for Winchester Wesleyan to regain this impetus? Are you going to be a part? Do you have real people with real names for whom you pray? Do you pray that God will open a door so you can share the Gospel with them?

Are you an evangelistic thinker? An evangelistic prayer? Are you willing to make the personal changes necessary in order to become one?
