Your Thoughts...

With evangelism on all our minds now I want to open this blog up like a forum. Not only do I want post my thoughts but I want to hear yours also. Limber up your fingers, and start your typing engines! (You can leave your comments at the bottom of this blog.)

I’ll keep this shorter than normal but I would like to say something.

In general, I like Rob Bell. Rob Bell was the man talking in the video this Sunday. He was the opposite to “bullhorn guy”. However, as I was watching it I couldn’t help but wonder, would we feel differently about bullhorn guy if he was portrayed differently?

In the video bullhorn guy was portrayed as kind of stuffy, would we have felt differently if bullhorn guy was a younger, hipster, trendy cool looking guy? I don’t know.

Anyway we’ve been talking about evangelism now for two weeks. What are everyone’s thoughts?

Do you think that bullhorn guy is getting it wrong? Do you think there is a place for bull horn guy with regards to evangelism? And if you disagree with the way bullhorn guy goes about things, what do you believe are better ways to approach evangelism?

In general, what are your thoughts?

Bullhorn guy's approach doesn't work for me, personally. Even if he was portrayed as a cooler dude, it would, essentially have the same effect. I am totally turned off by that approach and really, always have been. I have never seen it be effective - has anyone else?
