The difference between apologetics and evangelism is that in apologetics, you are answering objections that the world raises, whereas in evangelism, you are bringing the message that Christ brought. So unbelievers tend to set the agenda in apologetics, and you set the agenda in evangelism.

There is no gospel without the offence. This is God's wisdom. It never seems sensible to us in our flesh.

God’s Word has always been His chosen instrument to create, convict, convert, and conform His people.

To evangelize properly by delivering the gospel, we need to follow God's agenda.

A church is not a Fortune 500 company. It's not simply another nonprofit organization, nor is it a social club. In fact, a healthy church is unlike any organization that man has ever devised, because man didn't devise it.

Keep going until you get good counsel that is persuasive for you that you should go elsewhere.

Pride causes us to care more about what our non-Christian friends think of us than what God will do to them in their sin.
