    Amen! I think this is the sort of thing that has become increasingly important to remember as American society changes. Evangelism from members of the CofC has evolved from a logical, evidence-driven style to… well, no one really knows, except that it's sure NICE. We wouldn't dare impose, after all, as that only turns people off. Of course, "not imposing" is not a terribly effective way to convince somebody of anything by itself. If debate doesn't seem as effective, why not evangelize by trying to live radical lives of Christian love?
