The sermon for Sunday, June 22rd will be on "Fly Fishing" by Ray Miller. Through the sermon Ray will share with us a redefinition of the word "evangelism". Evangelism has come into for some criticism in some circles. It implies a kind of forcing of coercing of the will. It projects the worst of Christian Churches of attempting to trick people into membership of into attending a worship service.
Ray has a whole different perspective on this topic and Sunday we will have an opportunity to hear from him and interact with him about it.
How do you define evangelism? What is appropriate and what is beyond the scope of permissible when the church is involved in inviting people to attend?
The sermon will come to us in two parts. It should be an interesting Sunday morning.
If you would like to give Reverend Miller feedback write him at raym@lpbroadband.net.
If you have thoughts or suggestions for me concerning aspects of our church's ministry write me at charlesschuster@fcfumc.net.
Ray and I both look forward to hearing from you.
