Evangelism - GCSE Religious Studies Definition

Reviewed by: Bridgette Barrett

Last updated

Evangelism is the act of spreading the teachings of Christianity to others, with the aim of converting people to the Christian faith. It often involves sharing the message of Jesus Christ’s life, death, and resurrection, emphasising themes of salvation and faith. Christians may engage in evangelism through various methods, such as personal conversations, community events, missionaries, or digital media, always with respect for others' beliefs. Within the context of GCSE Religious Studies, understanding evangelism is important as it highlights how Christianity can be practiced and how it influences followers to live out their faith actively in the world.
