As Christians, our goal in evangelism is not to boast about our success, but to bring joy and glory to God by transforming unbelievers into people who delight in Him; by doing so, we will experience increased happiness and a deeper sense of fulfillment. By sharing the good news of Jesus Christ, we can create new believers who admire and love God, bringing us great joy and satisfaction.

Christ says we are to "let" our lights shine. In other words, when you get right with God and are filled with the Holy Spirit, He will simply shine through you. God is the light that shines within and through His church as the light of the world. The same word the Bible uses for light in Matthew 5 to describe Christ’s Church also describes Christ Himself in John 8:12.
