<description>“Evangelism”
What comes to your mind when you hear that word? Billy Graham? A man standing on the corner with a sign and megaphone? 
Does evangelism matter and make a difference? Is there a right or wrong way to do it?  On this week’s show Kurt and Chad welcome back Phil Morrison, founder of Hoops For Christ ( https://hoopsforchrist.org ) to talk about evangelism and whether it’s a 10 second video clip seen by millions or carrying a 10 ft cross down the street.  Both can touch one person and change the trajectory of their life, pointing them to Jesus and changing them for eternity.  (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!)</description>
