This post is a survey of some thoughts about evangelism that I’ve wanted to share for some time in response to several discussions and posts in the blogosphere. I hope they are helpful in some way to those of you who do evangelism.

Riffs: 1:08:07: Mark Galli: Liturgy Beyond the Rat Race of “Relevance”
