In this concluding article, we want to look at the ‘hows’ of sharing one’s faith with others. Generally, there are two aspects to evangelisation – witnessing with our lives and proclaiming the Good News.

In the past 2 articles, we shared that love (for God, and for His people) is the reason we evangelise, and that evangelisation is joining God’s search party and becoming fishers of men. Now comes the question of “when?”. When is the right time to evangelise? When do we know that it is the opportunity for evangelisation?

Why evangelisation matters to God and us.

Whenever the topic of personal evangelisation is brought up, chances are many Catholics would rather shy away. “I don’t know what to say,” “I’m not eloquent,” and “I’m not worthy to tell others about Jesus” are some common reasons given to explain why evangelisation is not their cup of tea.
