If you were sick, poor, sexually damaged, or paralyzed by guilt and shame, Jesus would move toward you and tell you what nobody else would: you matter.

I was asked to share 3 truths for trainee pastors. What should they know about evangelism...
OK, here are three Rs for trainee vicars!
1) Receive your calling
As pastor you *are* evangelistic because pastoral care and evangelism are not so very different. Pastoral care is evangelising Christians, evangelism is pastoring non-Christians. For more:

Specific and sincere words of life to another image-bearing creature in this life-sucking world that is constantly beating us down—not to mention our own internal thought world with all its accusations and belittlings.

To my conservative evangelical brothers:
I can’t express to you how much it means when you acknowledge the abuse in our ranks.

Facebook was started by Zuckerberg at Harvard to “rate” girls.
Today Facebook/Instagram is still used to rate girls.
Teen and tween girls around the world feel the enormous pressure, anxiety, shame, and emotional turmoil that goes along with being constantly rated and ranked.

There is either the LORD the Giver of life, or there is death: either the Source or the drought; the Fountain or the desert.
But without the Good Shepherd, what would Psalm 23 be?

@SamAllberry hits the nail on the head. Fearful of shallow pseudo-experience that has little to do with God, too often emotion-averse Brits go instead for no experience. Which in turn leads to little expectation of God and a torpid lack of desire
