Denman Evangelism Award
What is the Denman Award?
The Denman Evangelism Award was established in 1980 by The Foundation for Evangelism to recognize and honor pastors and lay persons who are doing the vital work of responsible evangelism in ways that are in keeping with United Methodist history and tradition.
Many conferences have established two annual Denman Awards, one for a lay person and one for a clergy person. Those eligible for these prestigious awards include lay people or clergy who are effective in developing true disciples of Jesus Christ! This can involve personal witnessing, speaking, inspiring individual persons or the local church to be actively involved in effective evangelism and outreach. The size of the local church with which the person is affiliated, the age or gender of the person, the lenght of time of involvement are not primary criteria for selection. One's accomplishments in the area of evangelism are what really count as they establish the person's lifestyle, provide witness to that person's ministry and bring honor to Christ and the Church.
