In this lecture, Chan discusses the meaning of evangelism and that it is defined by its message rather than its audience. His lecture helps us to understand that we need a theology of evangelism and that evangelism means that we communicate the gospel to others. Chan points to the use of the Greek word euaggelion in the Bible which means, the amazing news of Jesus Christ. Chan encourages us to understand that there are many ways to communicate the gospel and that believers begin their journey by hearing the gospel but are able to continue that journey because they continue to hear the gospel.
