The Rev. Michelle Tepper, Director of Denomination Engagement – Alpha USA
Demystifying Evangelism
SESSION DESCRIPTION
In every word and action, Jesus boldly revealed the reality of the Kingdom of God—captivating hearts and minds wherever he went. This wasn’t a strategy; it was a way of life. Evangelism, at its core, is not about formulas or pressure. It’s about creating space where the Kingdom of Heaven can be tasted, seen, felt, and experienced here on earth. We are called to follow the way of Jesus, embodying a witness that is invitational, authentic, and Spirit-led.
Michelle is the National Director of Denomination Engagement at Alpha USA. She has two decades of global ministry experience as a university pastor, evangelist, and speaker. Her journey has taken her from leading a historic Anglican student ministry at St. Aldates Church in Oxford to sharing the gospel in universities, businesses, and government settings around the world. After 13 years in England and extensive work across denominational lines, she has witnessed Alpha thrive in diverse contexts—helping churches bridge the gap between faith and culture. She is now based in Florida with her husband Peter, Rector of St. Peter the Fisherman and their daughters Sophia and Zipporah. Michelle is committed to equipping churches to practice Spirit-filled hospitality and engage their communities with the love of Christ.
