Evangelisation is the principal function of the Church. Its purpose is to arouse a living, conscious, and responsible faith among all the people capable of receiving the Gospel. Its addressees are people living under concrete circumstances of the contemporary world. The multiple transformations in the world affect their lives and shape a definite model of the man, the listener of the word of God. Now the priest, by preaching a homily, should bear it in his mind. Otherwise, even though the homily of its essence is an effective tool in conducting evangelisation, its improper preparation and preaching can make it difficult for the hearers to meet God in the word that is being preached.
