    • Great New Book on a Challenging Topic

    August 6, 2008

    Hallelujah – a book on evangelism for the rest of us!    I just finished reading Hitchhiker’s Guide to Evangelism by Bill Tenny-Brittian (soon to be released by Chalice Press).  In the interests of full disclosure, I will admit that Bill is a friend and we sometimes work together.  But you should also know that I did my doctoral project on Evangelism and have read and taught mucho books on the topic.

    Hitchhikers Guide to Evangelism

    Folks – you have got to get this one. 
    Hitchhikers is clear, practical, and down-to earth, with no assumptions the you will ever be able to  instantaneously lead the person next to you on an airplane to Jesus.   That is not the point of this book.  The point is sharing the good news in a positive, authentic way - while maintaining your integrity and respect for wanderers (Bill’s term for non-believers). 
    Especially while maintaining your integrity and respect for wanderers.  This is not about manipulation.

    Hitchhiker’s Guide to Evangelism has shot straight to the top of my favorite books on evangelism.
