Effective Evangelism
Four Models
Power Evangelism
Acts 4:29-30
29Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant
to Your servants that with all boldness they
may speak Your word, 30by stretching out
Your hand to heal, and that signs and
wonders may be done through the name of
Your holy Servant Jesus."
Acts 14:3
3Therefore they stayed there a long time,
speaking boldly in the Lord, who was bearing
witness to the word of His grace, granting
signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Heb 2:3-4
3how shall we escape if we neglect so great a
salvation, which at the first began to be
spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us
by those who heard Him, 4God also bearing
witness both with signs and wonders, with
various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit,
according to His own will?

Acts 10:17-20

Acts 16:6-10

they had come to Mysia, they tried to
go into Bithynia, but the Spirit did not
permit them. 8So passing by Mysia,
they came down to Troas. 9And a
vision appeared to Paul in the night.
A man of Macedonia stood and
pleaded with him, saying, "Come over
