The "Evangelism and the Friends Testimonies" Project invites you to join the discussion:


   What role should the Friends testimonies play in evangelism and "publishing Truth"? Do we emphasize Christian conversion, or do we place the distinctive concerns of Friends foremost to earn attention and credibility? Does it depend on personal temperament or gifts, or on our corporate experience? (For more on the context of these questions, see the WELCOME! topic in the message titles below.)
