Description

Success in evangelism is the making of disciple-making disciples within disciple-making churches.

While there is no shortage of books on personal evangelism and apologetics, far less attention has been given to the role of the local church in evangelism. The conviction that the local church is God's chosen home for evangelism underpins this book. Drawing on years of hard-won ministry experience, Paul Brennan and Dave Jensen show how ordinary local churches can, under the sovereignty of God, see more people become Christians and involve more Christians in evangelism.

Grounded in Scripture and shaped by life in real churches, Evangelism in the Local Church offers realistic encouragement and practical wisdom for leaders who long to see their churches grow through the gospel.

'Church leaders everywhere would do well to read this book, have their hearts touched and then begin to more clearly focus their energies on genuinely evangelising the many people around them who need Christ. Thank you to Paul and Dave for sharing the hard-learned lessons and for pointing towards crucial practical steps leaders and their churches can take. I am also indebted to them for encouraging us all not to tone down the gospel, nor to be paralysed by fear or failure. I can't commend the book highly enough!'

'Thank you Paul and Dave for writing this book. A wonderful example of practical theology that will help every church, or at least those with the courage to admit that we are not doing as well as we should, to be more effective in evangelism. My prayer is that every pastor reads this, but more than that, that they read it with the humility needed to make changes to more effectively reach people with the Gospel.'

'Dave and Paul have drawn from their own ministry contexts, and created a resource that is both theologically rooted and immediately useful for church leaders and their mission teams. Church leader, don't skip the Why. Sit with it. Let God's Word do its work in you before you move to the How. The promises of Scripture aren't just a backdrop - they're the fuel that sustains this kind of ministry over the long haul. And then, energised bythose promises, get to work. Build your team. Don't try to do this alone. The privilege of seeing people move from death to life is too important - and too wonderful - to carry by yourself.'
