Indeed, the internet, radio, and 24 hour cable channels create a stream of holy words that soon blend into the cacophony of noise that is a hallmark of our technological age. Most troubling of all, is that there is a real crisis of faith in the world where many people “believe in God”—but you’d never know which god, by how they live.

It is in this context that both Pope Benedict XVI and Francis have made inciteful, if not controversial pastoral directives regarding how to evangelize a culture that has become dulled to the Word of God.
ATTRACTION, NOT COMPULSION
Pope Francis ruffled the feathers of not a few Catholics when he allegedly said in an interview with atheist Dr. Eugenio Scalfari:
វិបុលភាពគឺមិនសមហេតុសមផលទេវាគ្មានន័យទេ។ យើងត្រូវស្គាល់គ្នាស្តាប់គ្នានិងបង្កើនចំណេះដឹងអំពីពិភពលោកជុំវិញយើង។—interview, Oct. 1st, 2013; repubblica.it
I say allegedly because Scalfari admitted afterward that the interview was not recorded and nor did he take notes. “I try to understand the person I am interviewing,” he said, “and after that, I write his answers with my own words.” [1]ការចុះឈ្មោះកាតូលិកជាតិ វិច្ឆិកា 12, 2013 As a former news reporter myself, I was a little stunned by that revelation. Indeed, the interview was inaccurate enough that the Vatican, who initially posted the interview on its website, later pulled it. [2]ibid ។
Nonetheless, the Pope later left no doubt about how he felt about “proselytism” when he said in St. Peter’s Square:
ព្រះអម្ចាស់មិនដូរសាសនាទេ។ គាត់ផ្តល់សេចក្តីស្រឡាញ់។ ហើយស្នេហានេះស្វែងរកអ្នកហើយរង់ចាំអ្នកអ្នកដែលមិនជឿឬនៅឆ្ងាយ។ ហើយនេះគឺជាសេចក្តីស្រឡាញ់របស់ព្រះ។ -POPE FRANCIS, Angelus, St. Peter's Square, ថ្ងៃទី ៦ ខែមករាឆ្នាំ ២០១៤; ព័ត៌មានកាតូលិកឯករាជ្យ
For some, these words are the “smoking gun” that បញ្ជាក់ Francis is a modernist if not a Freemason attempting to create a generic religion, a unified hodge-podge of niceness without the form of truth. Of course, he was saying nothing that hasn’t already been said by his predecessor:
សាសនាចក្រមិនចូលរួមក្នុងសាសនានិយមទេ។ ផ្ទុយទៅវិញនាងលូតលាស់ ដោយ“ ការទាក់ទាញ”ដូចគ្នានឹងព្រះគ្រីស្ទ«ទាញអ្វីៗទាំងអស់មកឯព្រះអង្គ»ដោយអំណាចនៃសេចក្ដីស្រឡាញ់របស់ទ្រង់ការលះបង់ខាងសាច់ឈាមនៅលើឈើឆ្កាងដូច្នេះសាសនាចក្របំពេញបេសកកម្មរបស់នាងដល់កម្រិតមួយដែលនៅក្នុងការរួបរួមជាមួយព្រះគ្រីស្ទនាងបានសំរេចកិច្ចការទាំងអស់របស់នាងខាងវិញ្ញាណ។ និងការធ្វើត្រាប់តាមជាក់ស្តែងនៃសេចក្តីស្រឡាញ់របស់ព្រះអម្ចាស់។ ប៊ែលហ្សិកទី ១៦ អាយលីសសម្រាប់ការបើកសន្និសីទទូទៅលើកទី ៥ របស់ប៊ីស្សពអាមេរិកឡាទីននិងការ៉ាប៊ីនថ្ងៃទី ១៣ ខែឧសភាឆ្នាំ ២០០៧; វ៉ាទីកង់វ៉ា
When I pointed this out in my last writing, [3]អ្នកណានិយាយអញ្ចឹង? the reply of some was that I was merely proving that Benedict XVI, John Paul II, etc. were also modernists. As bizarre and almost calumnious as that sounds, I am wondering if these Catholics simply have a different definition of proselytism than what is being presented? Yet, I’m not sure. I see a gulf between how some perceive we should evangelize and what the popes are teaching, and that gulf, in my opinion, is a dangerous one. Because Christian fundamentalism can be as damaging as keeping the truth obscured.

This is what is meant, then, when Francis says, “evangelization is not proselytizing”: [4]អភិជន, ថ្ងៃទី ១៦ ខែឧសភាឆ្នាំ ២០១៧; Radio Vaticana that we are to build bridges, not walls. These bridges, then, become the means over which the fullness of truth passes.
Still, some Catholics hear this as “compromise, not evangelize.” But that is plainly putting words in the mouth of the Pontiff that don’t exist. For he was utterly clear about the intent of our Christian mission when he said:
...the transmission of the Christian faith is the purpose of the new evangelization and of the entire evangelizing mission of the Church which exists for this very reason. Moreover the expression “new evangelization” sheds light on the ever clearer awareness that countries with an ancient Christian tradition also need a
renewed proclamation of the Gospel to lead them back to an encounter with Christ which truly transforms life and is not superficial, marked by routine. —POPE FRANCIS, Address to the 13th Ordinary Council of the General Secretary of the Synod of Bishops, June 13th, 2013; វ៉ាទីកង់វ៉ា (ការសង្កត់ធ្ងន់របស់ខ្ញុំ)
Didn’t Blessed John Paul II also call the Church to “new means and new methods” and expressions of the Gospel? Yes, because walking up to someone in mortal sin who was raised in ignorance of the faith and morals of the Church and telling them they will go to hell, will likely keep them from the Church doors for a very long time. You see, our culture today is marked by a massive ignorance in which the lines between evil and good have been erased resulting in “the loss of the sense of sin.” We have to start again at the beginning, of appealing to the spiritual nature of others by bringing them into an encounter with Jesus. North America is missionary territory once again.
Don’t get me wrong (and somehow, someone will): hell exists; sin is real; repentance is intrinsic to salvation. But we are living in a society that Paul VI said is not thirsting for words—we are inundated with words—but for “authenticity.” To be an authentic Christian means, in a word, to be ស្រឡាញ់ itself. This becomes the “first” word that then gives credibility to our verbal words, which are also essential, but are carried by the vehicle of genuine love.
How can they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach? (Rom 10:14)
LOVE BUILDS BRIDGES…
Since when does a young man walk up to a pretty young woman, present a ring, and ask this complete stranger to marry him? So too, the Gospel is not about presenting a list of truths with a dotted line at the bottom 
which one must sign, but about introducing others into a ទំនាក់ទំនង. In fact, you really are inviting someone to become the bride of Christ. True evangelization occurs when they see the Groom in you.
Jesus spent three years with the Apostles. Technically, he could have spent three days, for Christ didn’t come to preach to the whole world before His Passion (that, He commissioned the Church to do). Jesus built relationships wherever He went. He never hesitated to speak the truth, even the hard truth. But it was always in a context of the other knowing they were loved and accepted, not condemned. [5]cf. យ៉ូហាន ១០:១៦ That’s what gave such power to His words, “Go and sin no more”: the sinner was so attracted by His love, that she wanted to follow Him. The Church, said Benedict, is called to this “practical imitation of the love of her Lord” that gives truth its real edge.
…JOY INVITES OTHERS TO CROSS
If accepting others where they’re at and loving them in that moment in all their weakness and faults so as to establish a relationship, a bridge, is vital—then it is joy which invites them to begin crossing the bridge of salvation.
Dr. Mulholland, an Assistant Professor at the Benedictine College in Kansas, put it succinctly:
What I am doing, ideally, when I share my faith is not arguing about right or wrong. What I am doing is witnessing to fulfillment, to the fact that life in Christ brings joy and fulfillment to my life. And against such facts, there are no arguments. “The Church is right about contraception and you are mortally sinning by going against it” is less compelling than “Following the Church’s teaching on contraception has brought immense joy and fulfillment to my marriage.” — “Witnessing ប្រឆាំងនឹងទល់នឹង Arguing”, Jan. 29th, 2014, gregorian.org
Pope Francis’ Apostolic Exhortation begins with a beautiful and anointed call for Christians to return to the អំណរសប្បាយ of our salvation. But this is not about forming small groups and feigning cheerfulness. No!
Joy is a fruit of the Holy Spirit! Joy, then, has the power to penetrate another’s heart who, when tasting that supernatural fruit, wants more of what you have.

Some Christians argue that what people need is truth, for the truth sets us free. Absolutely. Christ is the Truth. But the question is របៀប we present the truth—with a bludgeon or as an ការអញ្ជើញ to the Way and the Life?
AN ICON OF EVANGELIZATION
Meditate on how Jesus approached Zaccaheus, and there you’ll find the difference between proselytizing and evangelizing. Jesus didn’t 
just look at him and say, “You’re on the fast track to hell. Follow me.” Rather, he said, “today I must stay at your house"។ It was precisely this investment of time that so moved Zaccaheus, he who thought he was worthless and unlovable. How many of us feel this way too! And it is only reinforced by the fact that all these Christians standing beside me at Mass have absolutely zero interest in getting to know me, to love me, to spend time with me—or ផ្ទុយមកវិញ. You see, it was the fact that Jesus was willing to simply be with Zaccaheus that opened his heart to the Gospel.
How much time is necessary? Sometimes it’s only a few minutes that opens the door to the Gospel. Sometimes it’s years. For whatever reason, some Christians always defer to the example of Jesus blasting the Pharisees with the hard truth; that this, somehow, justifies their combative approach to evangelization. But they forget that Jesus spent បីឆ្នាំ dialoguing with them before He chastised them for their hypocrisy and hardheartedness a few days before He entered His Passion (to let His death say what His words did not.)
“Time is God’s messenger,” said Blessed Peter Faber.
We need to practice the art of listening, which is more than simply hearing. Listening, in communication, is an openness of heart which makes possible that closeness without which genuine spiritual encounter cannot occur. - ប៉ុបបារាំង Evangelii Gaudium, n ។ ៦៧
What do you think Jesus did when He was in Zaccaheus’ house? You can be sure that Our Lord did what He always did when He had built a bridge: listen to the other, and then speak the truth.
នេះគឺជា យ៉ាងជាក់លាក់ what the popes mean by evangelizing, not proselytizing.
You have to heal his wounds. Then we can talk about everything else. Heal the wounds, heal the wounds… And you have to start from the ground up។ - ប៉ុបបារាំង americamagazine.orgថ្ងៃទី ៣០ ខែកញ្ញាឆ្នាំ ២០២០
