Many Christians, I believe, grant the importance of evangelization in theory but shy away from it in practice. Very often, I suspect, they have a narrow and inadequate conception of the meaning of the term.  Perhaps they are put off by certain styles of evangelism. Sectarian  Protestantism, they often feel, uses methods that are far too aggressive; often it settles for merely verbal or emotional responses in which
people profess an experience of Christ as their personal savior.
