Abstract:
Reflecting on the earthly ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ, it is best to describe evangelism as the backbone of Christianity. Jesus was recorded for preaching in towns and villages throughout his stay on earth. He pursued preaching of the gospel as a major occupation which was so important to him than food. This introductory chapter considers the background to the study, statement of problem, research questions, aim and objectives, significance of the study, methodology, scope and structure, and review of relevant literature
