Taking Back the Gospel
Nancy Golden, author
The Second Greatest Commandment (Matthew 22:36-40) tells us to love our neighbors as ourselves, and The Great Commission (Matthew 28:16-20) tells us to go and make disciples. By combining these two commandments from our Lord, we are able to share our faith with those around us in a natural way.
In the pages of this book, you’ll find ways you can share the Gospel that are both comfortable for you and effective. Since it is all about sharing the love of Christ by building relationships with those around you and allowing the Holy Spirit to work through you – the pressure is off! God will use you in the ways that He has gifted you, and when we understand that it is our job to be obedient, but the end results are His, we are free to focus on building relationships rather than trying to follow a preplanned agenda.
You will learn about why you should evangelize and how to go about it, with plenty of examples and encouragement along the way. You won’t find a huge, scholarly tome here – but an easy-to-read book that is intentionally not very long. We think you will find it very convenient to fit this study into even the busiest of schedules, and still gain the tools you need to approach evangelism with joy and confidence.
Nine chapters lend themselves well to a nine-week group study, but they can also be read individually at a more rapid pace or adjusted to fit into a seminar format. The discussion questions are designed to give you ideas on how to share your faith, and the appendix provides real, thought-provoking stories to inspire you as you begin your own journey of joining God on mission and sharing the Gospel with a hurting world in desperate need of Him.
