What is evangelism? The phrase "preach the gospel" is the common definition for the Greek word "euaggelizo" which means "to evangelize." We practically see evangelism in the body of Christ as the sharing of the good news of Jesus Christ - His death, resurrection, and ascension - and this Gospel message is for the whole world! In Mark 16:15, Jesus said to his disciples, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.”’ Luke 15 is a powerful embodiment of these truths and Jesus shares three parables—the Lost Sheep, the
Lost Coin, and the Prodigal Son—to illustrate God’s deep love for the lost and His desire for them to be saved. These stories provide key insights into evangelism, emphasizing the importance of seeking, valuing, and celebrating those who return to God.
