- Abstract
Many factors become the impetus to carry out the great commission of Christ, which is to preach the gospel. Preaching and spirituality are two of them. Jesus Christ used the preaching platform in delivering His first teaching. Preaching becomes a way to spread the gospel and inspires people to do that at once. Spirituality holds the main role for an individual to be a part of a ministry, including evangelism. It becomes a passion for someone to convey the gospel. Using quantitative research methodologies, there is a simultaneous big effect from preaching and spirituality to evangelism. Partially, the effect of spirituality gives more dominant results to evangelism than preaching. Increasing evangelism effectively and significantly can be done by increasing spirituality. Certainly, on a practical level, there are other influenced factors in increasing evangelism apart of the researched variable. Research Contribution: This research can be used as a preaching strategy in encouraging the congregation to preach the gospel. The results also provide pastoral insight to church leaders that evangelism is more effective when carried out at a certain level of spirituality.
