evangelical Christianity

Evangelical Christianity is a branch of Protestant Christianity characterized by a focus on personal faith in Jesus Christ, the authority of the Bible, and the importance of spreading the Christian message through evangelism. Evangelicals emphasize a personal conversion experience, the importance of a biblically-based moral lifestyle, and active participation in sharing their faith. While their beliefs align with mainstream Christian doctrine, their emphasis on individual salvation and evangelism often shapes their community practices and engagement with social issues. Evangelicalism exists globally with diverse cultural expressions but maintains core commitments to the teachings of Jesus and the authority of scripture.
