For most Catholics, the idea of becoming an evangelist is intimidating. “How could I ever bring anyone back to God or to the church?” we may wonder. “I’m not an expert or an evangelist, and I don’t want to knock on doors!” In this book, John and Therese Boucher encourage Catholics to share their faith in four simple and practical ways: praying for those we know who far from God, showing them Christ-like care and compassion, initiating faith-sharing conversations, and inviting them to join us at Mass and parish events. Each chapter includes two “spiritual workouts” designed to deepen our own experience of the Lord, grow in zeal for sharing our faith, and learn the skills to become part of the New Evangelization. A separate chapter has ideas for fostering a missionary, evangelizing parish.
