Jeg fant en artikkel på christianpost.com om evangelisering. Den heter “How to Share Your Faith by Talking About Happiness”. Dette skal ikke bli en lang artikkel, men jeg skal bare sitere tipsene fra artikkelen, og så gi noen sitater fra om hva noen kjente evangelister/kristne tror om evangelisering. (Sitatene er ikke direkte svar på tipsene i artikkelen)
