Pope Francis outlines characteristics of an evangelizing community in his writing "The Joy of the Gospel". He describes such a community as taking the first step in evangelization, getting involved in people's lives, and bearing fruit. An evangelizing community is also supportive, patient, and finds joy in small victories. The community embraces life, stands with people through both easy and difficult times, and spreads the goodness of the Gospel with joy.

Pope Francis and The Joy of the Gospel: Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii GaudiumEnrique Soros
The doctrine, the principles of the Church, don't change, but since the world changes constantly, the Church must find pastoral ways to reach out to the world accordingly.
Are we open to the signs of the time?
Are we open to the inspiration of the Holy Spirit?
The Apostolic Exhortation of Pope Francis presents to us a giant challenge: embracing all human beings, to bring them closer to the redemption of Jesus Christ.

Homily: 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time 2016James Knipper
This weekend’s Gospel is the familiar story of Jesus healing ten lepers and only one comes back to give thanks. But there is another reason that Luke records this story, for while the gift of gratitude is important – the returning, grateful leper has much more to teach us about how to live our lives. Check it out….

The Christ Centered Life is a life that acknowledges the value of others. It does't just attempt to live for Christ, but also encourages others to live their lives for Christ. It helps others explore and use their abilities and gifts to the glory of their Lord. 1 Corinthians 12:12-31

“People ordained to do something for Jesus have no fixed salary, are not in denominational organizations, and they lay down their life because God has given them the sustaining power they need to not charge for the Gospel when they have the right to. Their dependency comes from the power of God not the number of people in the seats. They have the power to ask God to touch the hearts of the people to give and God will lay it upon the ears of the people.”
Perspectives Lesson Five: Unleashing the Gospel -- 202002MarkTab Ministries
Delivered to the Perspectives class in Statesboro, GA on February 20, 2020
In this lesson we will see how God launched the World Christian movement. We will discover that the Church is a double structure that endures to this day. We will watch how ordinary people chose a strategy of suffering which they learned from Jesus and will consider how we can live with that same apostolic passion. We will examine the biblical grounds of hope for an enormous in-gathering at the end of the age.

Lesson 4 of 26 in a series on New Testament Vistas. This sermon on the Beatitudes was presented November 27, 2011, at Palm Desert Church of Christ, by Dale Wells.
Christ's final command was to "make disciples of all nations," a command we continue to respond to in our Catholic schools and religious education programs. But how are we to evangelize in a culture that is apathetic -- if not hostile -- to religious faith? Using the Year of Faith as a backdrop, this session will explore the history and meaning of the New Evangelization with an emphasis on practical strategies for parishes and schools.
This presentation was given at the 2012 CACE Annual Meeting in San Diego.
Christian Community: The Foundation of Discipleship (Building A Better Discip...Jonathan Sullivan
Faith is nurtured and sustained in the context of a community of believers. This session will explore how the Church in various contexts (family, parish, school, etc.) sets the stage for a life of discipleship.
This is the third in a five-part webinar series on Christian discipleship. Slides and other handouts can be found at http://bit.ly/BetterDisciple.
Slideshow presented at the public informational meeting for our new congregation. Includes summaries of our mission, beliefs, worship practices, and an honest assessment of where we are and where we are going.
Stewardship is about what we do with what we have once we say we believe. It is that part of our lives where we decide if we're really going to Walk the Walk as much as we Talk the Talk!

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

2. Taking the first step,
being involved and
supportive, bearing
fruit and rejoicing
24. The Church which
“goes forth” is a
community of
missionary disciples
who take the first step,
who are involved and
supportive, who bear
fruit and rejoice. An
evangelizing
community knows that
the Lord has taken the
initiative, he has loved
us first (cf. 1 Jn 4:19),
and therefore we can
move forward, boldly
take the initiative, go
out to others, seek
those who have fallen
away, stand at the
crossroads and
welcome the outcast.Pauline.org
3. Such a community has an endless desire to
show mercy, the fruit of its own experience of
the power of the Father’s infinite mercy. Let us
try a little harder to take the first step and to
become involved. Jesus washed the feet of his
disciples. The Lord gets involved and he
involves his own, as he kneels to wash their
feet. He tells his disciples: “You will be blessed
if you do this” (Jn 13:17).
Pauline.org
4. An
evangelizing
community
gets involved
by word and
deed in
people’s daily
lives; it
bridges
distances, it is
willing to
abase itself if
necessary,
and it
embraces
human life,
touching the
suffering flesh
of Christ in
others.
Evangelizers
thus take on
the “smell of
the sheep”
and the sheep
are willing to
hear their
voice.
Pauline.org
5. An evangelizing community is
also supportive, standing by
people at every step of the way,
no matter how difficult or lengthy
this may prove to be. It is familiar
with patient expectation and
apostolic endurance.
Evangelization consists mostly
of patience and disregard for
constraints of time.
Pauline.org
6. Faithful to the Lord’s gift,
it also bears fruit. An
evangelizing community
is always concerned with
fruit, because the Lord
wants her to be fruitful. It
cares for the grain and
does not grow impatient
at the weeds. The sower,
when he sees weeds
sprouting among the grain
does not grumble or
overreact. He or she finds
a way to let the word take
flesh in a particular
situation and bear fruits of
new life, however
imperfect or incomplete
these may appear.
Pauline.org
7. The disciple is ready to put his or
her whole life on the line, even to
accepting martyrdom, in bearing
witness to Jesus Christ, yet the
goal is not to make enemies but to
see God’s word accepted and its
capacity for liberation and renewal
revealed.
Pauline.org
8. Finally an evangelizing
community is filled with joy;
it knows how to rejoice
always. It celebrates every
small victory, every step
forward in the work of
evangelization.
Evangelization with joy
becomes beauty in the
liturgy, as part of our daily
concern to spread
goodness. The Church
evangelizes and is herself
evangelized through the
beauty of the liturgy, which
is both a celebration of the
task of evangelization and
the source of her renewed
self-giving. http://bit.ly/18B5RDK
Pauline.org
9. For reflection & prayer
Pope Francis describe several characteristics of the evangelizing community.
Think of your parish, a religious organization you belong to, or some other
community:
—Which of these traits best characterizes your community?
—Which one does it most need to grow in?
How have you contributed to both?
Lord, I trust that you will always be creatively faithful in your love for me and for
us. So, I commit myself here and now to your Church’s mission of
evangelization. I don’t know all that it will entail, but I know that you will
show me every step of the way; you will not fail me. That’s enough for me.
