Commonality and Diversity among Hispanics in the United States and their Implications for Evangelism

Abstract

Andrew Schroer encourages evangelism to Hispanics by commenting on the universal truths of the gospel ministry, the commonalities of the Hispanics, and their diversity. The universal truths are that all people are sinners, God wants all people to be saved, and the Word of God gives the good news. The commonalities in the Hispanic culture are their high emphasis of relationships and a common language (though there are dialects). The diversity is found in each country of origin’s unique culture, generational differences, and economic imbalance. Each needs to be taken into account when evangelizing Hispanics.
