How to Revive Evangelism: 7 Vital Shifts to Fuel Your Church, Ignite Your Faith, and Impact the Culture
In How to Revive Evangelism, Craig Springer, executive director of Alpha USA, pairs groundbreaking nationwide sociological research conducted with the Barna Group with robust biblical theology to address the cultural paralysis surrounding Christian witness today. Recognizing that nearly half of practicing Christian millennials believe sharing one's faith is wrong, Springer exposes the cultural roadblocks—fear of offense, cultural skepticism, and outdated aggressive tactics—that have chilled evangelistic passion in the Western church. The author outlines seven vital, practical shifts required to revitalize witness: moving from monologue to dialogue, from debate to hospitality, from institutional programs to authentic community, and from human striving to supernatural prayer. Packed with real-world church case studies, inspirational stories of skeptical seekers finding Christ, and actionable leadership strategies, this timely manifesto equips pastors, church planters, and everyday believers to share the gospel with renewed cultural resonance, confidence, and Christlike love.
