LIVING PROOF – Sharing the Gospel Naturally
Jim Petersen

Do you have a hard time sharing your faith with others? It’s no wonder. Our society has become more secular and more in opposition to all things Christian. But that doesn’t mean that people are beyond the reach of the gospel-it just means we must learn to communicate in a way that they can understand.

“Simply verbalizing the message is not enough,” writes Jim Petersen. “We’ve got to make sure that they understand what we’re saying, and that often means demonstrating it by living a natural, friendly, Bible-centred lifestyle in their midst. We then become living proof of our message.”

In this classic on evangelism, author and missionary Jim Petersen shares what he had learned from more than thirty years of working with unchurched people. He shows that, although many people don’t want to hear about faith, they will talk about their own needs that can only be met in Christ. By outlining where our society stands and offering practical guidelines, Jim Petersen will help you learn to share your faith naturally and, as a result, more effectively.
