What Is Lifestyle Evangelism?

Most people understand that evangelism is when someone spreads the gospel in an effort to help others achieve salvation. But did you know that there are even different kinds of evangelism? 

One of those types of evangelism is called biblical evangelism and entails using passages from the Bible and Jesus’s own words to spread His message. Another type of evangelism is called lifestyle evangelism. In this article, we’ll explain what lifestyle evangelism is and how it differs from other forms of evangelism.

Lifestyle Evangelism Explained

As opposed to biblical evangelism, which focuses on using Bible passages and gospel tracts to spread Jesus’s message, lifestyle evangelism is all about spreading the gospel through the way you live your life. It turns the gospel into practical life.

The Bible and Jesus’s message are still instrumental in lifestyle evangelism, but spreading the gospel is done more through your actions than through your words. It involves being an example of Christ’s love in the world so that others may see it.

A main part of lifestyle evangelism is being around unbelievers and exemplifying the teachings of Christ through the way you live. In this way, you can attract people to want to learn more about Jesus, and want to take part in His love in the same way that you have. It’s similar to becoming a role model or someone that people look up to. Because of your actions and the way you live your life, people want to emulate you and learn more.

If you think about it, Jesus paved the path of lifestyle evangelism by living a life of love and service amongst unbelievers. Through His selfless actions, He attracted people to Him who wanted to learn from Him and be like Him, bringing salvation to many. Lifestyle evangelism lets Jesus’s followers continue His important work and save unbelievers today.
