Evangelii Nuntiandi is an Apostolic Exhortation written by Pope Paul VI in 1975. It is a meditation on evangelization, that is, the Church’s mission of proclaiming the Gospel message to all people. The text begins by exploring the Gospel message itself, emphasizing the kingdom of God and salvation in Jesus Christ. It then explains the vital connection between evangelization and human liberation, urging the Church to address issues of justice, development, and peace. Evangelii Nuntiandi further outlines the importance of various methods of evangelization, including witness, preaching, catechesis, and the use of modern media. The exhortation also emphasizes the importance of popular religiosity, small communities, and the roles of various groups in the Church, including bishops, priests, religious, and lay people. Finally, Evangelii Nuntiandi stresses the need for evangelizers to be guided by the Holy Spirit, to live lives of authenticity and holiness, and to strive for unity among Christians.
