Christians must lead the lost to Christ . . . and evangelistic success requires at least two attitudes. First, Christ's presence in my life has made a positive difference . . . Second, Christ's absence makes life poorer . Last century, missionaries knew that worshipping ancestors or spirits led to spiritual defeat. Today, American Christians need to remember that truth is what you believe and toleration . . .
Missional churches love the world . . .
Jesus was noted for doing good . . . He healed, preached, and forgave. Effective churches today seek to minister to their world in the same ways. Not every church can fully fund a Compassionate Ministries Center . . . Few churches can underwrite a hospital or clinic . . .
