A Lesson In Evangelism From Philip And The Ethiopian Eunuch

Contributed by Paul Green on May 19, 2022

When Philip introduces the Ethopian Eunuch to Jesus – he does it God’s way. Philip wasn't an Apostle like Peter, a missionary like Paul, or a pastor like Timothy. He was a deacon, a servant of the church, an ordinary, average man who just couldn’t keep God to himself.

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Oct 10, 2021
