\u201cEvery Christian is challenged, here and now, to be actively engaged in evangelization; indeed, anyone who has truly ex\u00adperienced God\u2019s saving love does not need much time or lengthy training to go out and proclaim that love.

If we are not convinced, let us look at those first disciples, who, immediately after encountering the gaze of Jesus, went forth to proclaim him joyfully: \u201cWe have found the Messiah!\u201d (Jn <\/em>1:41)\u2026<\/p>\nHere we find the source and inspiration of all our efforts at evangelization.
