by Richard D. Phillips

To be called as a Christian is also to be called as an evangelist. But many believers find themselves plagued with questions: What is an evangelist? How do I begin to talk to someone about Jesus? What must I say? This book offers answers to these and similar questions about evangelism straight from the pages of Scripture.

Rev. Richard D. Phillips digs into the early chapters of the Gospel of John to discover principles you can use for Christian outreach that were modeled by witnesses for Jesus and by Jesus Himself. Phillips unfolds biblical principles for evangelism by examining the ministry of John the Baptist and the calling of the first of Jesus disciples. Then, through a brief study of the Lords encounter with the Pharisee Nicodemus, he presents us with a theology of the gospel. Finally, he focuses in on Jesus stirring encounter with the Samaritan woman to show exactly how Christ shared the good news.

Phillips clear and concise handling of these key stories will both motivate and instruct you in your witness on behalf of Christ. An appendix looks at the relationship between God's sovereignty and evangelism.
