methodist evangelism

yes, i know - sounds like an oxy moron. i might be convinced that it is - or at least that "jessica the evangelist" is a non-possibility. just wanted to make sure the never-ending (ok, semester-long) saga that is "Evangelism in the United Methodist Tradition" makes a blip on the blog.

lessons i've learned (about myself or otherwise) thus far:
-we should have constructive theology BEFORE evangelism or homiletics
-evangelizing jews = bad
-evangelizing homeless folks = bad
-God as almighty = not my personal belief
-God as all-powerful = not my personal belief
-having a systematic theology = good
-atonement theories = i don't know of any good ones yet
-process theology = dear to my heart, though my only exposure is by osmosis - need to study more!
-doubting faith = always good
-theological reflection = always good
-exploring questions about the good news with folks you do or don't know = good
-can we transcend our own culture? = i don't think so
-can the good news transcend culture? = i don't know
-can the good news that i know transcend my culture? = i don't know
-can the good news that i know transcend my social location within my culture? = i sure hope so
-buddhism = i heart it, and i heart its influence on me, but i don't find ultimate hope in it
-sin = inter-connected suffering, sickness, and pain
-will the lion ever lie down with the lamb? = i'm not sure
-should i be able to reflect on this before i proclaim it or something like it in the gospel message? = i sure hope so.

enough rants on evangelism. i feel in a better place after having done my street evangelism "project" and a good conversation with tim over tea, and reflected on both - though clearly questions persist.

-how can i relate to the people for which more questions are not good news? = ?
-these questions must be open for discussion in evangelism class.
-why do i make everything deeper and/or more complicated than it might ought to be? = i don't know.
