This year’s Aus Memorial Lecture will be an extended conversation on Jesus Christ as the instigator and sustainer of Christian evangelism. In taking the Good News to those who have not yet heard and responded to the news, we join Jesus in his relentless determination to invite all into his coming realm. Opportunities and impediments to evangelism will be discussed and encouragement offered for today’s pastors to lead in evangelizing. Will Willimon has written extensively on evangelism, has been an evangelist as a campus minister, and as a bishop has led church planting ministries.
