Description

It’s become popular in some Christian circles to say that the Gospel message doesn’t need to be proclaimed or explained; living a Christian lifestyle is more than good enough. This perspective is often supported by a quote mistakenly ascribed to St. Francis of Assisi: “Always preach the Gospel. If necessary, use words.” In this talk, we critically evaluate this statement and see what Scripture teaches on this important topic.
