The result was a moving two-day conference in which church leaders and laity were urged to share Christ and show love with an intentional focus, as Texas Baptists director of Evangelism Leighton Flowers explained, on “the soul of the person you are with.”
Church leaders and laypersons alike will have another opportunity to be equipped and encouraged to share the good news of Jesus Christ.
“The church is good at huddling, but (Jesus) said, ‘I want you to go!’”
"God’s not going to stand still. God’s going forward, and God is looking for people to keep up with Him,”
“When you look at how Jesus did ministry a lot of times He asked questions. You don’t necessarily have to have all the right answers; you just have to know how to ask the right questions,”
“Having this knowledge can make the church relevant again in the public sphere of ideas and influence,”
Leighton Flowers explains how churches can refocus on evangelism.

Evangelism is an ancient biblical term that simply means to share the good news. What greater gift can any human being give to another than the message that God has made a way for us to be reconciled with Him? All Christians are called to participate in sharing this wonderful news with others.
