How You Can Be the Best Church Leader in 2027 (A Three-Part Series) – Part 3: Bring Back the Priority of Evangelism

Revitalize & Replant with Thom Rainer

Kevin and Thom look five years into the future to project what good church leaders will look like then. They provide insights about some steps you can take now to be that great church leader. In part three, they remind church leaders that evangelism has waned in most churches, and it must return.

• Let the church know you personally prioritize evangelism.

• Don’t let six months pass without an emphasis on evangelism.

• Inviting people to church serves as indirect evangelism.

• Evangelize your new members’ class.

• Understand the inverse relationship between age and receptivity to the gospel.
