The New Evangelism Message That’s Changing Everything. What if reframing evangelism isn’t about getting more people in church, but about learning to meet Jesus in the midst of sorrow? In part two of our conversation with ‪@LutherSeminary‬ professor Andy Root ‪@andrewroot5890‬, we explore a radically different approach to sharing faith that moves beyond happiness-hunting strategies to embrace God’s presence in brokenness. Andy Root, author of “Evangelism in an Age of Despair,” challenges churches to stop chasing evangelism success like gamblers at a table and instead learn what it means to journey with people into their deepest sorrows. Drawing insights from Blaise Pascal’s spiritual journey, this conversation reveals how reframing evangelism around sorrow and loss can actually lead to more authentic faith sharing.
