Tent evangelism: its value today
Keywords:
tent evangelism, evangelism, validity, Ellen White.Abstract
All along the history of Adventism in Brazil, the work of evangelism through mobile auditoriums (or tent evangelism) has shown to be an efficient method. Nowadays, however, Adventists evangelistic preachers diverge concerning its value for today's evangelism. The present study pretends to evaluate the evangelism done in mobile auditoriums as it is actually practiced. The research is limited to a deployment of this method by Adventists in the Southern and Southeast regions of Brazil.Downloads
