by Robert Kolb (Author)
This practical textbook and tool enables readers to evaluate programs and current thoughts regarding contemporary evangelism that will lead to the development of individual evangelism programs. This book attempts to model the way in which the insights of theologians, the observations of other disciplines, and the pulse of popular culture can be brought together to inform the bridge-builders, the baptized children of God, on ways of constructing the bridges over which they, as the Holy Spirit's agents, can bring the dying into new life in Christ. Revised edition.
The most complete book on evangelism that I have read. . . . A theological book, rich in biblical grounding. . . . A comprehensive book, bring the many facets of the Christian faith to bear on the evangelical task. . . . A practical book, from which every reader is going to capture useful insights for the work of evangelism. . . . Three things in the author's treatment. . . . were especially helpful to me. . . . the consistent use of the Law-Gospel distinction, the presentation of God the Creator as an important part of the evangelical witness, and the extensive reflection on the fact of evil. . . . Any Christian will find in Kolb's book fresh and challenging insights for the central task of speaking the Gospel.
