    • “Most of our evangelism in the U.S. and Canada in the last few decades is reaching nominal Christians.” – @edstetzer
    • “Our target that has been focused on evangelism is going away, and now you are getting more secular people who are more resistant to the gospel.” – @edstetzer
    • “The death of nominalism does lead us to some significant questions moving forward.” – @edstetzer
    • “Preaching and teaching in a secular age does require us to not begin with certain assumptions and to begin to address questions that people have.” – @edstetzer
    • “We need to provide on-ramps for people who are listening in and need to understand more.” – @edstetzer
    • “I am teaching and preaching for the interested Christian, I’m not really preaching to the non-Christian, but I am going to have on-ramps for them.” – @edstetzer
    • “At the end of the day, I am assuming that people who are listening to my message are leaning in enough that I can lean back and help them to hear and respond.” – @edstetzer
