Fr. Matthias Shehad explores the story of Philip and Nathanael to highlight key principles of Christian evangelism. He emphasizes the necessity of encountering Christ personally before sharing the faith with others. Drawing from Philip’s example, Fr. Matthias shows how effective evangelism involves being intentional and purposeful in reaching out to others, motivated by love and a desire for their salvation.

The sermon discusses addressing skepticism with invitation rather than argument, encouraging believers to say, "Come and see," inviting others to experience Christ firsthand. Fr. Matthias stresses living the faith authentically to witness its transformative power, rather than relying solely on theological debate. He also reflects on Jesus’ recognition of Nathanael’s sincerity and the importance of affirming the positive in others while leading them toward a deeper relationship with God.

This message encourages believers to actively seek out those far from faith and to trust God’s work in their hearts through genuine relationships.
