Top Highlights
“The reason most Christians have not led anyone to Christ is not because non-Christians aren’t interested as much as it is because Christians haven’t stepped out of their comfort zone and told them how to become a Christian. If you truly care about the lost person you have been befriending, you will reach a point in the process when it would be criminal to keep silent.” (Page 192)
“Evangelism, helping people get saved, is deeply rewarding because it fulfills the reason for our existence. Evangelism is why you are here. You will never be fulfilled until you live for the glory of God. You can’t glorify God unless you live a lifestyle of evangelism.” (Page 14)
“Our righteousness is not enough to get us into heaven. Neither is it good enough to overcome the stain of sin and make us saved. It is not enough to get us to God.” (Page 64)
“The real business of life is glorifying God and being used by Him to transform unbelievers into people whose great delight in life is to know and trust Him.” (Page 13)
“The goal is simple: get the nonbeliever around other genuine Christians so the nonbeliever can see the love and power of God at work in human lives. The goal is also to get the lost person in an environment where God the Holy Spirit can speak to them through the Word of God. Often they simply must feel like they belong before they can believe.” (Page 191)
"Evangelism Is... serves a great purpose—to remind us of the joy of sharing our faith. But even more, Earley and Wheeler teach us the important lesson of how natural evangelism should be in the life of the believer. I hope this book will be used to energize more believers to share the gospel in their culture."
