Book Synopsis The Reluctant Evangelist by : Richard Coekin
Download or read book The Reluctant Evangelist written by Richard Coekin and published by The Good Book Company. This book was released on 2018-07-09 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn from Jonah how to be an effective evangelist Jonah is famous for being a reluctant evangelist. But God had other plans! If we're honest, we are also often very reluctant when it comes to telling others about Jesus. We can learn from God's dealings with Jonah about how to be effective for the Lord, whom we love and want to serve. We can move from can't and don't to can and do. Like Jonah we need learn to trust his awesome power (chapter 1), experience his sovereign grace (chapter 2), fear his coming judgment (chapter 3) and share his gut-wrenching compassion (chapter 4). All this is perfectly revealed in Jesus, the divine Evangelist, and as we look to him and as the Holy Spirit fills our hearts with his evangelistic compassion, our hearts will sing with the melodic line of Jonah, “Salvation comes from the LORD” (Jonah 2 v 11) and our lives will erupt with the evangelistic enterprise that our cities so desperately need.

Book excerpt: The call of every Christian is to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with those around them, the Great Commission. Yet, having a reluctance to witness to others is a common trait among Christians everywhere for various reasons. In the new non-fiction book, THE RELUCTANT EVANGELIST: Embrace Your Gifts and Fulfill God's Purpose, author Dave Kachele addresses the inner struggles that prevent believers from sharing the Gospel with confidence and peace. The book is organized as a 50-Day Journey for individuals and/or groups with the purposes of deepening relationships with God, understanding how God made each of us, and helping Christians to use their own gifts and personalities to share the Gospel when God opens doors to do so. "Since coming to know the Lord in 1974, He has given me a heart to share the Gospel, make disciples, and teach others to do the same. Win and Grow Ministries, with THE RELUCTANT EVANGELIST: Embrace Your Gifts and Fulfill God's Purpose, is designed to inspire, encourage, and equip ALL Christians to share their faith confidently with their own God-given spiritual gifts, personalities, and passion." Dave Kachele is an ordained minister with the Association of Evangelical Gospel Assemblies (AEGA).

Book Synopsis The Heart of Evangelism by : Jerram Barrs
Download or read book The Heart of Evangelism written by Jerram Barrs and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2005-02-08 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All Christians are called. Called to love God with all that we are. Called to serve Him. Called to reach out to the lost. However, if we are honest, the majority of us would admit that we find this last calling the most difficult. While we gladly support the evangelistic ministries of others, many of us feel discouraged by our own attempts at witnessing because our memorized approaches don't seem to work. This biblical study of evangelism gracefully reminds us that the New Testament model of witnessing is not a one-size-fits-all methodology. With compassion for the lost filling every page, Jerram Barrs shows the variety of approaches used in the New Testament-where the same uncompromised Gospel was packaged as differently as the audience-and calls you to follow its example. You can learn to witness comfortably in your particular circumstances so that sharing Christ doesn't feel like a chore. And as you watch God work in the lives of others and see the great blessings He brings, you'll discover what a privilege it is to live out the heart of evangelism: truly loving others to Christ.
Book Synopsis The Oxbridge Evangelist by : Michael J. Gehring
Download or read book The Oxbridge Evangelist written by Michael J. Gehring and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-02-28 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Oxbridge Evangelist: Motivations, Practices, and Legacy of C. S. Lewis, Michael Gehring examines the evangelistic practices of one of the most significant lay evangelists of the twentieth century. In the early 1930s not many who knew Lewis would have guessed that he would become such a significant evangelist. He has left an evangelistic legacy that has influenced millions across the world. Yet Lewis scholarship has not given sufficient attention to this crucial aspect of his legacy. This work examines Lewis's loss and recovery of faith, and it shows how his experience heightened his own awareness of the loss of the Christian faith in England. Because of his ability to identify with others, Lewis engaged in the work of evangelism with uncanny skill. This work required singular courage on his part; it cost him dearly professionally and in his relationships. Gehring critically explores Lewis's motivations, practices, and legacy of evangelism. In doing so he provides penetrating insight for those interested in the theory and practice of evangelism in a culture that too readily leaves it to the crazies of the Christian tradition or relegates it to the margins of church life.

Book Synopsis The Gospel and Personal Evangelism (Foreword by C. J. Mahaney) by : Mark Dever
Download or read book The Gospel and Personal Evangelism (Foreword by C. J. Mahaney) written by Mark Dever and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2007-09-07 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evangelism is not only misunderstood, it is often unpracticed. Many Christians want to share the gospel with others, but because those Christians don't grasp the fundamentals of witnessing, they feel intimidated and incapable of sharing the truth of the gospel. Yet those believers fail to recognize that God has already established who and how we are to evangelize. In The Gospel and Personal Evangelism, Dr. Mark Dever seeks to answer the four basic questions about evangelism that many Christians ask: Who should we evangelize? How should we evangelize? What is evangelism? Why should we evangelize? In his answers Dever draws on New Testament truths and helps believers apply those truths in practical ways. As readers understand the fundamentals of evangelism, they will begin to develop a culture of evangelism in their lives and their local churches.
Book Synopsis The Scandal of Evangelism by : Elmer John Thiessen
Download or read book The Scandal of Evangelism written by Elmer John Thiessen and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-04-26 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today’s multi-cultural and multi-religious world, evangelism is often viewed as scandalous, not only by those who are opposed to anything religious, but also by many Christians. In this book, Elmer Thiessen provides a response to those who find most or even all Christian evangelism objectionable. He does this through a careful analysis of what the Bible says about the ethics of evangelism. Based on this inductive study, mainly of the New Testament, Thiessen proposes thirty guidelines for ethical evangelism. Part II examines some specific contexts that pose unique challenges for doing evangelism ethically—evangelism of children, evangelism within a professional context like the secular academy, evangelism within the context of humanitarian aid, and finally the problem of proselytism, understood in the special and narrow sense of sheep-stealing.
Book Synopsis The Kenotic Organization by : Brian E. Ruffner
Download or read book The Kenotic Organization written by Brian E. Ruffner and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-01-25 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although organizations frequently proclaim the desire for change, renewal and transformation, few ever fully embrace those ideas, failing to rise above more than mere mediocrity and never realizing even a fraction of their true potential. Certainly, many pontificate on the nature of organizations as they live and breathe, so to speak; yet, few question how the organization ought to be. This ought belies the existential and ethical dimensions of organizing and, as such, points to a discipline not often associated with the organizational realm–theology. To this end, the concept of the kenotic organization offers a much-needed antidote to the syndrome described above. Drawing on the divine Trinitarian kenosis observed in the creation event and witnessed in the Incarnation, the simultaneous actions of self-limiting and pouring out inform the organizational cause and expose a deeply entangled organizational mesh enveloping the entire cosmos which can serve as a catalyst to excite preferred organizational behaviors. It is, in fact, the humility of Trinitarian kenosis, the willingness to withdraw but also at once pour out the individual essence, that generates the thrust necessary to escape the gravitational pull of convention which typical inhibits organizational flourishing.
Download or read book Gate Crashers written by Joe Kohler and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-02-23 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gate Crashers: The Offensive Church makes the case that God desires to work through the church to do abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, not because we deserve it, but for the praise, honor, and glory of his own name (Eph 3:20-21). Although much modern experience within the ranks of the professing church would cast doubt on this, the Scriptures reveal God's amazing plan and model for his church. While it may be true that our present system of church has drifted away from God's perfect design, the good news is that we can get back on track by submitting to his perfect will! Are you ready to get onboard the Offensive Church and become a gate crasher?
Book Synopsis The God of the Other Side Bible Study Guide plus Streaming Video by : Kathie Lee Gifford
Download or read book The God of the Other Side Bible Study Guide plus Streaming Video written by Kathie Lee Gifford and published by HarperChristian Resources. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Gospels, we often read of Jesus telling his disciples to travel to the “other side” of the Sea of Galilee. What we don’t often realize is what this other side represented. It was the region of the Decapolis, where many pagan religions were practiced. The disciples, under Jewish law, would have been considered unclean even to step foot there. In this six-session video Bible study, Kathie Lee Gifford and Joanne Moody reveal how Jesus broke through social barriers and reached those on the “other side” whom society had abandoned. Through the stories of the Demoniac, Samaritan Woman, Prodigal Son, four friends of the paralyzed man, and Cornelius and Peter, you will discover the incredible lengths to which God will go to reach those who are lonely, lost, and left behind. You will be challenged to follow Jesus’ example and daily go to the other side for those who need his love. Each session includes clips from The Way oratorios, featuring Kathie Lee Gifford and other well-known personalities, that bring the story of Scripture to life with contemporary orchestral arrangements, powerful narration, and stunning visuals. This study guide includes: Individual access to six streaming video sessions A guide to best practices for leading a group Video notes and a comprehensive structure for group discussion time Personal study for deeper reflection Sessions and video run times: The Other Side (23:00) The Demoniac (24:00) The Samaritan Woman (22:00) The Prodigal Son (22:00) Cornelius and Peter (23:00) The Power of Unity (23:00)
Book Synopsis The Neglected Great Commission by : Gabriel O. Akinbode
Download or read book The Neglected Great Commission written by Gabriel O. Akinbode and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evangelism is heavily associated with announcing and proclaiming the gospel. Both Western evangelical and Eastern Orthodox Christians have—for the most part—favored this view of evangelism. In The Neglected Great Commission, author Rev. Dr. Gabriel O. Akinbode describes what evangelism means and further discusses the Great Commission that Jesus Christ gave to his disciples, to go into the world and make disciples of all nations. Strengthening the faith of Christians, Akinbode offers a host of information on spiritual awakening. He: • traces a brief history of the commission from the beginning and how it was passed from generation to generation; • identifies the essentials of evangelism; • delves into the scriptural pattern of evangelism and divides it into two parts, namely mass evangelism and personal evangelism; • reveals the urgent need to reach the young people with the gospel that the harvest is plentiful, the laborers are few, and time is short; • describes how the Great Commission was neglected; • lifts up the benefits that can be achieved through obedience to the Great Commission; and • advocates for all believers to rise up and embrace the Great Commission. The Neglected Great Commission communicates that the power of Jesus is available to save, heal, deliver, and use you for God’s glory. There is a reward in serving the Lord.

Download or read book Unlikely Converts written by Randy Newman and published by Kregel Publications. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rely on the unstoppable power of the gospel, not your own words Most Christians have people in their lives who they're sure will never come to faith. Whether they're too committed to their sinful ways, too angry at God, or too quick to shut down any mention of the saving grace of Jesus, these long shots don't seem worth approaching. But some of the most unlikely converts have the strongest faith stories, and they can be a source of incredible encouragement for Christians who are trying to evangelize those around them. Randy Newman knows firsthand the discomfort that comes with sharing the gospel. He's been tongue-tied and timid too. But the truth is, we don't need to sound like the brilliant, charismatic, legendary evangelists. In this book, Randy shares surprising conversion stories straight from those who took the long way around to Christianity. He considers current cultural trends that make evangelism more difficult today. Then with his characteristic upbeat style, he offers practical ways, and even exact wording, to proclaim the gospel and includes a plan of action. In the end, Unlikely Converts encourages us to remember that while the Great Commission requires us to share the good news, it does not require perfection, only confidence in the message.
Book Synopsis Charles Wesley : A Reader by : Charles Wesley
Download or read book Charles Wesley : A Reader written by Charles Wesley and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1989-09-21 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Wesley, perhaps best known for his hymns, "Hark! the Herald Angels Sing" and "Jesus Lover of My Soul," was the younger brother of John Wesley and the co-founder and poet-laureate of Methodism. Although he was an important figure in the history of Protestantism, Wesley's personal life was shrouded by a cloak of silence and much of his work went unpublished. In this illuminating reader, John Tyson has collected hymns, sermons, letters, and journal material--many rare and hitherto unknown--to chronicle the life and works of Wesley in his own words. Tyson provides an extensive biographical-theological introduction, and supplements Wesley's collected works with interpretative and introductory notes, creating a definitive account of Wesley's character and contribution to the Methodist heritage.
