11-13.97: LFTD - " 7/7-Evangelism Made Personal " Author : Mark A. Copeland (EO-3.9) " EVANGELISM MADE PERSONAL" Concluding Remarks I hope that the thoughts presented in this series might serve in some way to encourage all those who desire to lead others to Christ and His church. The emphasis has not been to stress one approach above others, nor to say that everyone must be doing the same thing in this enterprise we call "Evangelism," but rather to motivate, encourage, and offer suggestions of a general nature that may help anyone do whatever they can, according to the ability and opportunity God has given them. If it has helped but one person to be more diligent in their efforts, then my effort has been well worth it.
