Conversational Evangelism
How to Listen and Speak so You Can be Heard
by Norman Geisler and David Geisler
GoodBookStall Review:
Conversational Evangelism is a great book. It demystifies evangelism and proposes models which Christians can feel comfortable with. Based on what we read of Jesus and how he communicated with people, various models are explored like Musician, Artist, Archeologist and Builder in order to hear what people are saying, paint a picture, dig a bit deeper and build a bridge for the Gospel. Using these images, and exploring the skills suggested by each, the father and son authors of this helpful book, provide us with a manageable and exciting way of sharing Jesus in our day and age. I disagreed with their concept of pre-evangelism, but loved the content and style which is in itself conversational. Written with authority but feeling ‘light touch’, this book is very refreshing and one of the best to come from across the pond re evangelism.
