I posted this short video about evangelism on the doable evangelism blog last Friday:
It was originally made to be shown in a church but has since been uploaded to youtube.com.

Jeff Nalls wrote an article about ‘Overcoming Antagonistic Atheism’ for the July/August 2006 edition of The Humanist. Hemant is featured in it and has posted the complete article on his blog. Here’s an excerpt from page 3:
ANTIDOTE FOR THE ANTAGONISTIC IMAGE
The dilemma, however, remains: how do Humanists respond to fundamentalism’s’ charges and how can a positive image of the Humanist lifestance be promoted. If not via angry, antipathetic activism, then what?
Well, a handful of innovative freethinkers have proffered an antidote for this antagonism, an antidote that isn’t only more tolerant but much more effective. Earlier this year atheist Hemant Mehta organized a brilliant action which, due to the nature of its openness and good-natured spirit, unintentionally increased dialogue rather than squelching it.
Evidently Jeff and Hemant agree that friendly atheism is much more effective than angry antipathetic activism.

I know God exists because of what He and His Spirit have done in my heart. I cannot construct a perfect proof to prove or disprove God and that is a good deal of His wonder. Debating whether or not we can prove or disprove God’s existence is futile. We must talk about what we know to be true from personal experience, a great deal of it spiritual.
