“What marks the gift of an evangelist is love for souls, not love of preaching. Where the gospel is preached, and God, blesses it, there is fruit, which gives His servant confidence to go on; but when the evangelist is beginning, there may be very little development of the gift, and no fruit seen, but still there will be love for souls, and the endeavor to get at them. He must work by faith, therefore, until he gets proof in results.”

(Luke 10:2)).
