# The Power of “Being” There are millions in the Netherlands who need to hear the good news of the Gospel to find meaning, truth, and peace again. So many societies hardly recognize the value of a life lived in the existential fullness of faith. The challenges brought to Europeans by secularization along with changing cultural and social realities should be seen as a challenge and inspiration for action. Christians can see it as an opportunity to present a dynamic presence in the environment “outside” the church. For Europe today, evangelism is a question of being rather than doing. Individuals participating in transforming European societies by powerfully living out their faith is the best way to see a true and much needed re-evangelization of this continent. Now is the time for believers to be intentional in Europe—to rediscover what it means to be a Christian in this region of the world today, addressing issues that will bring meaning in people’s lives again. In 1 Corinthians 9:19–23 the apostle Paul writes about the power of being. Take a moment to read this for yourself. The example has been set. Now we must practice this critical means of evangelism. ## Prayer Requests > · Pray that the church will be bold to bring the whole gospel. > · Pray that Christians will know who they are in Christ and realize that they actually have good news to bring.
