1,000 Christian Leaders In Berlin At Evangelism Congress
By Stefan J. Bos, Chief International Correspondent Worthy News
BERLIN/BUDAPEST (Worthy News) – U.S. evangelist Franklin Graham said Wednesday that “1,000 Christian leaders from 55 countries and territories across Europe” will gather this month in Berlin to learn how to spread the Gospel to a continent in turmoil and beyond.
The May 27-30 European Congress on Evangelism in Germany’s capital is held while Europe faces its bloodiest conflict since World War Two in Ukraine amid calls for peace, Worthy News observed.
Additionally, “as secularism has grown and deepened its hold in so many European countries-just as it has throughout the rest of the world-there is an urgent need for the Church to stand firm on the Word of God. And be unashamed of the Gospel of Christ,” said Graham, the CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Christian charity Samaritan’s Purse.
He referred to the Bible verse Romans 1:16, which states, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.”
This verse emphasizes the power of the Gospel to bring salvation to all who believe, regardless of their background, whether Jew or Greek, Bible scholars say.
Franklin Graham stressed that the BGEA, named after his late father, the famed preacher Billy Graham, helps organize this month’s gathering to emphasize the need for millions to hear the Gospel.
“Our prayer at the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association is that all who attend will be encouraged, challenged, and emboldened to share the hope and life-changing truth of the Gospel,” he added.
The BGEA has a history of evangelism training, including conferences in 1983, 1986, and 2000 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. At these events, thousands of itinerant or traveling evangelists—many from developing nations—were encouraged to spread the Gospel more effectively in the largest such gatherings on record.
