Evangelism is the proclamation and manifestation of good news. The following passage from the prophet Isaiah illuminates the expansive, wondrous nature of God’s good news:

who brings good news,

Therefore, the good news of God’s love is a journey into a new way of life, which leads to becoming fully human.
