M’s Of Evangelism

Contributed by Adam Cain on Dec 4, 2009

A breakdown of teh Great Commission

M’s of Evangelism (12/9/2001) It’s jokingly said that the average man’s idea of a good sermon is one that goes over his head and hits his neighbor. By that standard I don’t want to deliver a good sermon. If I do I have failed God and wasted all of our time. I want to speak in the spirit with my ...read more
