Evangelism can make us want to crawl into a hole. Trust me, I have been there. It's not easy sharing our faith with a world that constantly rejects it. BUT it is still something that we have been asked to do. So, what do we do about that?
Larry and Marbi Janzen are two of my friends who have been called to a lot of evangelism; but what I love about what they share is their very gracious, patient, and loving approach. They also recognize that we all are going to have our own styles!
Larry and Marbi answer...
Why do you believe people are hesitant to engage in evangelism?
As missionaries, how do you address the WHOLE person, not just the spiritual?
What are the different types of evangelism?
Larry and Marbi Janzen met and married in Belize in 1991. Larry's parents were missionaries there, and Marbi grew up in the church they were ministering in. Her dad was a passionate evangelist and church leader. Larry went there after Bible College to help his parents in their missionary work, but God had other plans! Together they joined Avant Ministries in 1993 and have been missionaries with this church planting mission agency ever since. They have 2 lovely daughters and as a family they have served in church planting, leadership development, and social justice in Belize, Mexico, and Uruguay. They are currently mobilizers, motivators and mentors for missionaries that are going out from Latin America all across the globe.
