Your definition of evangelization and mine are different. He was definitely a proud and active Christian. The values he promoted were Christian in nature. Sure, he never said, “Be Presbyterian like me or go to Hell,” but that’s proselytizing, not evangelizing.
I would not say they are particularly Christian in nature, though I do agree that he was highly influenced by his own Christianity. Christianity does not get to lay claim to kindness or tolerance.
