2024 Outreach Magazine Resource of the Year for Evangelism

Evangelism is the heart of pastoral care.

In Evangelism: For the Care of Souls, Sean McGever reminds ministers that announcing--and reannouncing--the good news of Jesus is central to pastoral care. The gospel rightly belongs at the start of a Christian's life, but its role does not end there. It is the balm and cure of our hearts for all of life. We must all be evangelized and re-evangelized.

Avoiding a simplistic, manipulative, or guilt-inducing message, Evangelism: For the Care of Souls presents a vision and strategy for ministers to evangelize in a way that is refreshing, biblical, and sustainable.

Sean McGever is area director for Young Life in Phoenix, Arizona, and an adjunct faculty at Grand Canyon University. He is the author of The Good News of Our Limits and Born Again: The Evangelical Theology of Conversion in John Wesley and George Whitefield. He speaks, teaches, and ministers across the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
