Description

In this episode, Megan and Adam take on the often uncomfortable topic of evangelism in the Episcopal Church. They talk about why the word makes so many Episcopalians squirm, explore its historical baggage, and reimagine what it could look like when approached with authenticity and love.

Megan and Adam also discuss how sharing faith isn’t about coercion or conversion—it’s about embodying the good news through how we live, speak, and care for others. 


Takeaways:

  • Evangelism is about sharing good news, not coercion.
  • The Episcopal Church has historically been hesitant about evangelism.
  • Authenticity is essential when communicating faith.
  • Reclaiming the language of Christianity matters.
  • Living the gospel can be just as powerful as speaking it, but is has to be both.
  • We’re called to empathy, clarity, and love in how we share faith.


Here's a chance for us to reclaim the language of Christianity and maybe even make it a little weird again.
