Summary
Instead of deciding whether to talk about Jesus or culture, why not discuss both? Today, Gomer and Dave “No Friends, No Fear” VanVickle discuss how we can integrate evangelization with heavy cultural topics, instead of pitting them against each other.
Snippet from the Show
“Calling people to evangelization is not calling people to a warm and fuzzy feeling. The evangelist must be prepared to be crucified.”
