Making evangelism good news again

http://www.bpnews.net/bpnews.asp?ID=22468

[Baptist Press] January 17, 2006--I wonder if most of us realize how truly open most people are to the Good News of Jesus. I find it everywhere I go, among people from all ages and cultures. Almost everyone, if approached right, will talk about Jesus. And many people are only one friendship, or even one conversation away, from becoming His follower. So how can it be that so few Christians ever witness? Why do we keep the Good News to ourselves?

This "First Person" article is as relevent to Anglicans and Episcopalians as it is to Baptists. Are we spending too much time at church and not enough time in pursuing and reaching the lost? Have we bought into a theology that does not recognize those who have not accepted Jesus as their Savior and Lord as lost?
