According to Protestantism, how does one know if they have been called to an evangelist?
The very same way that one may know any part of what the Lord calls them to and gifts them for:
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
The degree to which we deny ourselves and offer our bodies as a living sacrifice unto the Lord (think whole burnt offering) is the degree to which we have clarity viz a viz our calling. Discerning and carrying out our stewardship of this new life in Christ is not primarily an intellectual exercise...we walk by faith and not by sight.
