Redefining Evangelism: A Journey to Sharing Deep Lutheran Insights

In Living Lutheran’s "Beyond Evangelism: Sharing What Matters," Anthony Bateza explores a nuanced approach to sharing the gospel, focusing on the therapeutic aspects of Lutheran theology rather than conventional evangelism.

Dr. Bateza reflects on the discomfort with traditional evangelist roles and the fear associated with being perceived as coercive. He suggests a shift from a caricatured evangelism to sharing theological depth and substance, emphasizing love, justice, and humility in faith communities.

Bateza's journey from an invitee to a passionate sharer of theology showcases the power of theology as a practice that welcomes, challenges, and nourishes within the church.
