Ah, an excellent question laurencer!
I think many Christians confuse teaching moralism (Dobson does a lot of this in his tirades against homosexuality) with evangelism.
Many good Christians think they have evangelized when they tell their co-worker that they shouldn’t cuss so much or participate in a right-to-life march. Those things have their place but they’re not evangelism!
I know you don’t deserve this little soapbox forgive me.
To answer your question:
Evangelism is reaching people who don’t believe in God with the message of Jesus Christ; the Good News of His life, death, resurrection and teachings.
